The library was built for Queen Caroline in 1736-7 to designs by William Kent. Sadly, the Queen did not get to enjoy her new library as she died in the year it was completed. This illustration was published in W H Pyne's 'The History of the Royal Residences', which appeared in three volumes in 1819, depicting the royal palaces as they appeared in the reign of King George III (1760-1820)
