1. Title: "A Vision of Regal Serenity: A Small Formal Garden for a Stately Home, 1821" This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving, dated 1821, presents a captivating plan of a small formal garden for a stately home. The meticulously designed garden is a testament to the grandeur and elegance of the Regency era. The garden's central focus is a magnificent fountain, surrounded by intricately arranged flowerbeds and winding paths that lead to various structures, including offices, stables, a kitchen, and a conservatory. The garden's layout is reminiscent of the symmetrical designs prevalent during the Regency period, with a clear division between functional and ornamental spaces. The garden's yard, enclosed by high walls, houses practical structures such as offices, stables, and a kitchen. In contrast, the formal garden is a tranquil oasis, filled with vibrant flowers, including roses and melons, arranged in neat rows. The garden's entrance is marked by an impressive gate, leading to a path that encircles the central fountain. The rosary, a popular feature of formal gardens during this time, is also visible, adding to the garden's charm and allure. The intricate detailing and precise execution of this plan reflect the high level of craftsmanship and artistry prevalent during the Regency era. This beautiful handcoloured copperplate engraving, from Rudolph Ackermann's Repository of Arts, London, 1821, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time of grandeur, elegance, and beauty. The small formal garden, with its intricate design and functional yet ornamental spaces, is a reflection of the opulence and sophistication of the stately home it adorns.
