Talk:Cheyne Walk

Dominicetti

"The Italian doctor Dominicetti opened a medicinal baths at 6 Cheyne Walk. People looking for a quick cure flocked to his practice between 1765 and 1782. Unfortunately to little avail, as he was a quack." https://www.rbkc.gov.uk/vmtours/chelseawalk/vm_cw_cheynewalk30_1.asp — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.28.36.212 (talk) 11:16, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Bram Stoker

Any reason Bram Stoker isn't mentioned? He lived at Cheyne Walk as well. Uwe Sommerlad (talk) 20:33, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

He is now. --Frans Fowler (talk) 17:30, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

How do you say Cheyne? I have only read the name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1702:4170:2B30:D435:5A9B:8222:B874 (talk) 20:45, 8 January 2022 (UTC)

Pamela Colman Smith

Also not listed in redisence. She lived at #73 fro the early 1900s until 1911. Her "big job for little money" - the commission for Arthur Edward Waite's Tarot deck was drawn and painted i=here from April through September 1909.

In 1909, Pamela Colman Smith lived and worked at 73 Cheyne Walk, Chelsea.

This location was a small house with a studio where she famously completed the 78 illustrations for the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot deck. She had been commissioned earlier that year by Arthur Edward Waite, an occult scholar she met through the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn.

Context of her Residency

• The Studio: Smith moved to this address in the early 1900s, establishing it as a creative hub where she held weekly "at-home" gatherings for fellow artists, writers, and actors.
• Tarot Creation: It was in this Chelsea studio that she produced the iconic artwork for the tarot deck between April and October 1909.
• Artistic Circle: During her time on Cheyne Walk, she was part of a vibrant bohemian community and was close friends with figures such as W.B. Yeats, Bram Stoker, and Ellen Terry.

While the original building at number 73 no longer stands in its 1909 form due to later redevelopments and wartime damage in the area, the site remains a point of pilgrimage for tarot enthusiasts. Ashareem (talk) 21:19, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
