EDITORS COMMENTS
19 Curzon Street, Mayfair, London: The Historic Home of Benjamin Disraeli, 1st Earl of Beaconsfield (1804-1881) This engraving captures the elegant façade of 19 Curzon Street in Mayfair, London, once the esteemed residence of Benjamin Disraeli, 1st Earl of Beaconsfield, from 1868 until his passing in 1881. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when this grand house was the center of British political and social life. Benjamin Disraeli, born in 1804, rose to prominence as a novelist and politician, serving as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom twice. He was the first Jewish person to hold this esteemed position, and his influence on British politics and society was profound. In 1876, he was granted the title of Earl of Beaconsfield, further solidifying his place in history. The house at 19 Curzon Street, located in the fashionable Mayfair district, was an important hub of activity during Disraeli's tenure as Prime Minister. It was here that he entertained dignitaries, hosted lavish parties, and conducted crucial political negotiations. The engraving showcases the imposing presence of the house, with its ornate columns, grand entrance, and manicured gardens, reflecting the opulence and grandeur of the era. Tragically, Disraeli passed away in this very house on December 19, 1881, at the age of 71. The house continued to be an essential part of London's social scene until it was demolished in the 1920s to make way for a new building. Today, the site remains an important historical landmark, serving as a reminder of the remarkable life and legacy of Benjamin Disraeli, 1st Earl of Beaconsfield. This engraving, preserved in the archives of Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique window into the past, allowing us to appreciate the history and significance of 19 Curzon Street and the man who once called it home.
