Holland House, South Front, 1873. 'When the marriage of Miss Marie Fox, Lady Holland's adopted daughter, to a German Prince at the Roman Catholic Cathedral in Kensington was the talk of London society for a week in the Midsummer season of 1872, we presented a few Illustrations of Holland House, with an account of its historical and literary associations. The accomplished young lady to whom our congratulations were then duly offered - now Princess Marie Liechtenstein, residing at Vienna - has compiled a very attractive and interesting book on that subject, which is naturally endeared to her by grateful remembrances of her childhood passed in the noble old suburban mansion. These two handsome volumes, dedicated to the memory of Henry Edward, fourth and last Lord Holland, who died in 1859, are a most graceful tribute of domestic affection...We borrow the Engraving which represents the south front of Holland House by permission of the publishers, Messrs. Macmillan and Co. It was stated in our former notice that this south front was altered in the late Lord Holland's time; the central projecting turret of stone, built by Inigo Jones, no longer contains the main entrance porch'. From "Illustrated London News", 1873.
