Artist's Resale Right ("Droit de Suite"). Artist's… 顯示更多

Capital III; Capital IV and Capital V (lots 145-147) comprise 11 of the original 18 panels that Tilson made in 1964 as models for Capital, a large scale mural for the lobby of the Royal Garden Hotel, Kensington. This ambitious project was amongst Tilson’s first public commissions and sadly no longer remains. The hotel had been known as the Palace Hotel since the 1800s but was demolished in the 1960s and redesigned by Colonel Richard Seifert. Sir Misha Black commissioned the artwork for the new hotel and chose the final configuration of the lobby mural from Tilson’s Capital models. The hotel re-opened in 1965 with guests being greeted by Tilson’s monumental work. The following year the hotel hosted the official reception celebrating England’s World Cup victory.
