Painters Hall

The walls and displays of the Court Room chronicle the fascinating history of the Painter-Stainers’ Livery Company. Royal Charters granted to the Company by Elizabeth I, James II, George VI and Elizabeth II, together with a wide collection of historical portraits and other items relating to notable events in times past, adorn these walls. There is also evidence in these rooms of the Painter-Stainers’ skills as grainers and marblers. Interconnecting doors slide back to reveal a more contemporary collection of art on the walls of the Court Dining Room. Together these Rooms present an ideal setting for pre-dinner drinks before ascending to the Livery Hall or for professional business meetings, presentations or smaller lunches and dinner parties. The lighting of both Rooms can be controlled to create the perfect atmosphere either during the day or evening.
