"Opened up" plan of the above, showing the walls with windows, bookshelves and paintings in elevation; with numbered key. Inscribed "KA". This is one of a series of hanging plans for the King’s and Queen’s rooms at Buckingham House, made c.1774, after the completion of the first wave of building work on the house. Many of the plans are annotated by the King, who was closely involved in fixing the appearance of the principal rooms of his new home. For a discussion of the group, see Francis Russell, 'King George III's Picture Hang at Buckingham House', Burlington Magazine, CXXIX, 1987, pp. 524-31.
