Trafalgar Studios were a set of purpose-built artists' studios on Manresa Road in the Chelsea area of London, England, just off the King's Road. A number or notable artists worked there.
The three-story, 15-unit block was built in 1878 by John Brass.
They were the first such studios in London, but further blocks were built nearby, attempting to emulate their success.
