الوصف: | "One of the greatest British architects of the later eighteenth century, Robert Adam (1728-92) had the distinction of developing a style of architecture, furniture and particularly interior design that have become synonymous with his name." "Since 1897, Country life has published a weekly article on country houses, illustrated with specially commissioned photographs, which form a remarkable record of some of the most important houses and interiors in Britain. Eileen Harris, the leading authority on Adam's interiors, has made a selection of two hundred of the archive's finest images to provide an illuminating study of twenty-two of Adam's masterpieces. The featured houses range from the works of the early 1760s, such as Kedleston Hall in Derbyshire, Syon House in Middlesex and Audley End in Essex, through the masterpieces of his maturity, which include Osterley Park and Kenwood near London and Harewood House in Yorkshire, to the later designs of the 1770s and 80s, including Culzean Castle in Scotland and Headfort House in Ireland."--Jacket. |
