Character Overview Westminster Has 56 Designated Conservation Areas
Westminster’s Conservation Areas - Character Overview Westminster has 56 designated conservation areas which cover over 76% of the City. These cover a diverse range of townscapes from all periods of the City’s development and their distinctive character reflects Westminster’s differing roles at the heart of national life and government, as a business and commercial centre, and as home to diverse residential communities. A significant number are more residential areas often dominated by Georgian and Victorian terraced housing but there are also conservation areas which are focused on enclaves of later housing development, including innovative post-war housing estates. Some of the conservation areas in south Westminster are dominated by government and institutional uses and in mixed central areas such as Soho and Marylebone, it is the historic layout and the dense urban character combined with the mix of uses which creates distinctive local character. Despite its dense urban character, however, more than a third of the City is open space and our Royal Parks are also designated conservation areas. Many of Westminster’s conservation areas have a high proportion of listed buildings and some contain townscape of more than local significance. Below provides a brief summary overview of the character of each of these areas and their designation dates. The conservation area audits and other documentation listed should be referred to for more detail on individual areas. 1. Adelphi The Adelphi takes its name from the 18th Century development of residential terraces by the Adam brothers and is located immediately to the south of the Strand. The southern boundary of the conservation area is the former shoreline of the Thames.

JMW Turner to Appear on the Next £20 Banknote
Press Office Threadneedle Street London EC2R 8AH T 020 7601 4411 F 020 7601 5460 [email protected] www.bankofengland.co.uk 22 April 2016 J.M.W. Turner to appear on the next £20 banknote Today, Bank of England Governor, Mark Carney, announced that J.M.W. Turner will appear on the next £20 banknote due to be issued by 2020. At the announcement at Turner Contemporary in Margate, the Governor revealed the image of Turner that will be used on the note. The selection of Turner is the first time the Bank of England has used the more open and transparent character selection process announced in December 2013. The process began in early 2015 with the formation of the Banknote Character Advisory Committee which as its first act selected the visual arts field. This was followed by a two month nomination period in summer 2015 during which members of the public could suggest a figure from the visual arts. The Bank received 29,701 nominations covering 590 eligible characters. The Committee, with input from public focus groups, then produced a shortlist which it discussed in detail with the Governor who made the final decision. Commenting on the decision, the Governor said: “I am delighted to announce that J.M.W. Turner has been chosen to appear on the next £20 note. Turner is perhaps the single most influential British artist of all time. His work was transformative, bridging the classical and modern worlds. His influence spanned his lifetime and is still apparent today. Turner bequeathed this painting to the nation, an example of his important contribution to British society.

Chapter 12—The Age of Revolution
Chapter 12—The Age of Revolution Paul Revere’s engraving, The Bloody Massacre, added to the fuel of revolution in America.

The American and French Revolutions Trumbull The Declaration of Independence The Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen August 26, 1789 The Third Estate set up a National Assembly as pictured by David The Tennis Court Oath 1789-1791. A march to Versailles was a march of women for bread…they got the king and queen. Jacques-Louis David was the essence of Neoclassical in France. His painting seemed like he painted statues instead of people. Rationality drove his artwork. David The Oath of the Horatii (1784) David The Death of Marat (1793) David Napoleon at the Saint- Bernard Pass (1801) Napoleon’s Empire Neoclassicism in America The US was founded on the Neoclassic model… it was called Federal style. Slavery had been an issue in America from the beginning when the colonies could not trade in anything including slaves. The Declaration of Independence didn’t address the issue at all in the final version…half the signers were from the South and had slaves. ROMANTICISM • Expression of personal subjectivism • Self-Analysis—positive and in particular more negative aspects, dreams, etc. • Not for the masses but for the artist, which cuts into the profit margin • Internal wallowing in self • Love of the fantastic and exotic • Interest in nature ROMANTIC AGE • Time of philosophical ferment: Darwin, Hegel, and Marx • Radical changes in society: railroads became the Roman roads • Science: Darwin, Mendel • Social unrest due to the Industrial Revolution • Individualism/liberalism in art, politics, and in life (carried over from Renaissance and Reformation) ROMANTIC AGE cont.
