EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of Eastwell Park, near Ashford, Kent, which served as the esteemed residence of the Duke of Edinburgh during the late 19th century. Built for George Finch Hatton in the late 18th century, this magnificent house became a cherished abode for Queen Victoria's second son from 1874 to 1893. The image is part of Reverend FO Morris' remarkable collection titled "A Series of Picturesque Views of Seats of the Noblemen and Gentlemen of Great Britain and Ireland" edited by William Mackenzie in London around 1880. The wood-engraved plate masterfully captures every intricate detail and color that adorns this architectural marvel. Benjamin Fawcett and Alexander Francis Lydon's paintings were skillfully translated into this exquisite print, evoking a sense of awe and admiration for both its creators and subjects alike. Surrounded by lush greenery, Eastwell Park stands proudly amidst its picturesque surroundings. Its stately presence reflects not only an era but also symbolizes aristocracy at its finest. This country house epitomizes elegance with its meticulously designed exterior and sprawling lawn that stretches out before it. As we gaze upon this historical gem frozen in time, we are transported back to a period where royalty reigned supreme within these hallowed walls. It serves as a reminder not only of our rich British heritage but also as an homage to those who have shaped our nation's history through their noble lineage.
