Description

This drawing by Arthur Baker is taken from a book published in 1888 which includes illustrations and descriptions of Plas Mawr, Conwy. Plas Mawr was built between 1576 and 1585 for the Welsh merchant Robert Wynn. The striking Elizabethan townhouse is regarded as one of the finest surviving examples of its type. The Royal Cambrian Academy of Art (est. 1882) was housed in Plas Mawr for over a century. Plas Mawr was renovated by Cadw in 1993-7 before being opened to the public.
