EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "An Exact Plan of the Gardens and Park at Wilton, the seat of the Earl of Pembroke" in 1746. Created by John Rocque, a renowned cartographer, this engraving offers a detailed view of the majestic Wilton House and its surrounding landscape. The plan not only includes an intricate layout of the gardens and park but also provides glimpses into various views of the house and other buildings within the garden. Commissioned by Henry Earl of Pembroke and Montgomery, this exquisite piece is dedicated to him as a token of gratitude from Rocque. The Palladian architecture style is evident in both the manor house itself and its formal gardens, showcasing elegance and grandeur. The town adjacent to Wilton House is also depicted in this plan, highlighting its close proximity to urban life while maintaining its serene countryside charm. Notable features such as bridges, gateways, porters' lodges, arcades on different storeys add depth to this visual representation. As we explore this historical artwork further through Fine Art Finder's collection, it becomes apparent that Rocque's attention to detail captures not only the physical aspects but also conveys a sense of pride associated with being connected to such an esteemed estate. This print serves as a testament to both architectural brilliance and natural beauty intertwined harmoniously at Wilton House under the patronage of Henry Earl Pembroke.
