EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the magnificent view from the west, showcasing Robert Adam's Diocletian Wing at Bowood House. Published in Eileen Harris' book "The Country Houses of Robert Adam" in 2007, this image is a testament to the timeless beauty of Adam's architectural genius. Designed by Robert Adam himself between 1761 and 1770 for the 2nd Earl of Shelburne, this remarkable structure stands as a symbol of grandeur and elegance. The Diocletian Wing takes center stage in the foreground, while the earlier house can be seen in the distance before its unfortunate demolition in 1956. However, it is worth noting that the Little House or Diocletian Wing still remains intact to this day. The photograph showcases an exquisite balustrade architecture with its intricate railing design. The grounds surrounding Bowood House are meticulously maintained, providing a picturesque setting for this neo-classical masterpiece. The single-storey orangery adds a touch of sophistication to the overall composition. With its neoclassical facade and Georgian charm, Bowood House stands proudly as a stately home amidst lush greenery and manicured gardens. The terrace offers an inviting space to admire nature's beauty while basking in the tranquility of country living. Captured by an English photographer from Bridgeman Images, this stunning photograph perfectly encapsulates both the historical significance and aesthetic allure of Bowood House. It serves as a visual reminder that even after centuries have passed since its creation during early 18th century England; Adam's architectural brilliance continues to inspire awe and admiration today.
