EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of "New House" in Shipton Under Wychwood, Oxfordshire, as it stood proudly in 1964. Designed by Stout and Litchfield, this architectural marvel showcases a harmonious blend of post-war design elements with subtle Japanese influences. As twilight casts its enchanting glow upon the scene, the exterior of the house is revealed in all its grandeur. The photographer, James O. Davies, skillfully frames the general view of the house against a backdrop of meticulously crafted Japanese gardens. The meticulous attention to detail is evident as every element seems perfectly placed within this serene landscape. The image transports us back to an era when architecture was not merely functional but also a work of art. The listed Grade II* status bestowed upon New House rightfully acknowledges its historical significance and exceptional architectural qualities. Davies' lens captures more than just bricks and mortar; it immortalizes an exquisite moment where nature meets human ingenuity. This photograph invites viewers to appreciate both the beauty of English countryside living and the delicate integration of Japanese aesthetics into Western design principles. As we gaze at this remarkable piece captured by Historic England's lensman, we are reminded that great architecture transcends time and cultural boundaries - leaving an indelible mark on our collective heritage for generations to come.
