- We're back!! In this first episode of our new series on John Soane (1753-1837) we discuss his origins: the child prodigy draughtsman, son of a bricklayer, apprentice of George Dance, winner of a studentship at the Royal Academy, and later with his Design for a Triumphal Bridge, winner of the Royal Academy and a travelling scholarship to Italy, enabling him to join the aristocratic young men of Britain on their Grand Tour.

Thank you. That’s most kind. I’ve now managed to establish contact with Luke Jones now too so I’ll be in touch.
The Early Fancy painting was of Soane’s unexecuted designs. See “Sir John Soane’s Museum London” - Tim Knox
So happy you guys are back !!!!!!!
Wonderful to see you two back in the saddles (or, couch). You have been missed.
John Soane- lovely stuff.
Thank you for a cozy atmosphere
A dazzling hour! At this time of universal dumbing down how inspiring it is to hear such a sophisticated and knowledgeable conversation! You have brightened my day up considerably! Having written a play about Soane and Gandy and am now completing a novel about them too, I would like to contact George Gingell but finding information about him has totally defeated me. Does anyone have any advice?
drop us an email on aboutbuildingsandcities at gmail dot com and we will get back to you!
Woohoo! Welcome back. I have missed your inspired and learned sessions.
