The Central Hall of the Royal Academy, 10 July 1869. Interior of Burlington House in London. Below the dome is a quote from Edmund Spenser's poem, "An Hymn Of Heavenly Beauty": That with the glory of so goodly sight, The hearts of men, which fondly here admire, Fair seeming shews, and feed on vain delight, Transported with celestial desire, Of those fair forms, may lift themselves up higher, And learn to love, with zealous humble duty, Th' eternal fountain of that heavenly beauty. From "The Illustrated London News", [10 July 1869].
