EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur and elegance of Burley-on-the-Hill, a magnificent country house in Rutland. The image showcases the impressive entrance facade as seen through a colonnade, drawing viewers into the architectural masterpiece that lies beyond. Built between 1694 and 1705 by Daniel Finch, the 2nd Earl of Nottingham, under the watchful eyes of local masons and surveyors Henry Dormer and John Lumley, this stately home is a prime example of English Baroque architecture. Its neoclassical design features Palladian influences, evident in the symmetrical layout and use of columns throughout. The forecourt leads to an exquisite courtyard adorned with pediments and arcades, exuding timeless beauty. The photographer skillfully captures these details, highlighting both the intricate craftsmanship and vastness of this historic estate. Jeremy Musson's book "The Country Houses of Sir John Vanbrugh" published in 2008, serves as a valuable resource for those interested in exploring architectural wonders like Burley-on-the-Hill. This particular print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only Musson's work but also the talent behind capturing such breathtaking imagery. Immerse yourself in history as you gaze upon this remarkable photograph - a testament to centuries-old artistry that continues to inspire awe today.
