EDITORS COMMENTS
Follaton House, seat of Stanley Carey in the picturesque town of Totnes, Devon, England, is depicted in this beautiful handcoloured copperplate engraving from Rudolph Ackermann's Repository of Arts, published in London in 1827. Designed by the renowned architect George Stanley Repton in 1826, Follaton House showcases the Regency-era's fascination with Chinese motifs and exoticism. The enchanting scene unfolds before us as we gaze upon the serene riverbank, dotted with camellia shrubs and tea plants, their leaves and camellia sinensis buds ready for picking. Farmers in traditional attire busily tend to the tea plants, their baskets brimming with freshly plucked leaves. In the distance, a traditional Chinese junk boat sails along the river, adding to the oriental ambiance. Monkeys playfully frolic among the branches of the trees, their mischievous antics a delightful contrast to the tranquility of the scene. The Chinese tea theme is further emphasized by the intricate detailing of the house itself, with its ornate Chinese-inspired roof and decorative features. The elegance and refinement of the era are captured in this exquisite engraving, which invites us to imagine the splendor of Follaton House and its surroundings. The engraving's meticulous handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, bringing the scene to life and transporting us to a bygone era.
