A watercolour of the Rose Satin Drawing Room at Carlton House, as it appeared in around 1817. The walls were lined with luxurious rose satin.

This is one of a series of views of the interiors of the royal palaces made at the instigation of William Henry Pyne between 1816 and 1819. The views were published by subscription, under the title History of the Royal Residences. A set of the views, some original watercolours, other heavily-coloured prints, were acquired by George, Prince Regent, for his library at Carlton House.

The paintings in the room can be identified from contemporaneous inventories: the two overdoors are portraits of George I (left, 404127) and George II (right, 403402). Each wall has a large painting over three smaller ones; on the left wall this is Teniers's Peasants Dancing (406363) over an Adriaen van der Velde landscape (left, 404137), an Ostade Interior (centre, 404814) and Wouwerman’s Hayfield (right, 405334). On the wall opposite the windows to the left of the mirror, Rubens's Self Portrait (400156) hangs over Adiaen van der Velde’s Hunting Party (406966), a Metsu’s interior (406436) and Potter’s Sportsmen (400942). To the right of the mirror, Rubens’s portrait of Van Dyck (404429), hangs over a Wouwermans camp scene (404615), van der Werff’s boy with guinea pig (404625) and an interior by Van Mieris (sold in 1819). Though barely visible, the right walls shows Cuyp’s Rijnsburg Abbey (405351), hanging over landscapes by Adriaen van der Velde (400941) and Potter (400527) and an interior by Slingelandt (405302).
