England, c. 1810

Views of English and Welsh castles and gardens, Castle Howard near York, Caernarfon Castle in Wales, Chatsworth House, Derbyshire/shooting location of „Pride and Prejudice“ and “The Duchess”, Trentham Castle, Staffordshire/shooting location of “Dowton Abbey”, “Bolton Abbey” and “Barden Tower”, Yorkshire Cascade in Bolton Park, Petworth House, West Sussex Holywell House near St. Alban's, an album with 20 loose sheets, watercolours and drawings on paper, each 15,5 x 33 cm, (Hu)
The present collection of watercolours leads through British country estates and their surrounding landscape gardens which all were created in the liberal spirit of Enlightenment. They all show how around 1800 the typical Baroque garden arrangement with its formally conceived abstract pattern was replaced by a gardening concept which brought subjective sensations and a naturalistic composition to the fore. The new style became the fashionable program of fine aristocratic manor houses. Landscape architects learned on their „Grand Tour“ through Italy from the new architectural concept of gardens and blended Palladian elements, point de vues, pastoral buildings and Roman ruins with English naturalism in their future projects. They created spatial works of art with waters, landscape terraces and pittoresque scatterings of trees. Anticipating his famous gardens in Muskau and Branitz, Hermann Duke of Pückler Muskau admired the intellectual and political dimensions of association of grand masters such as of Lancelot "Capability" Brown (1716-1783, Chatsworth House, Trentham Castle, Petworth House) and in 1825 toured to gardens in Great Britain including England, Scottland and Ireland.
