Rich Heritage: A wonderful addition for collectors of historical architecture, Wesleyan heritage, or educational institutions. This artwork is perfect for historians, collectors of academic institutions, and those inspired by the legacy of education and faith.

John Chessell Buckler (1793 - 1894) Horham Hall, Essex (1830) Watercolour 25 x 34 cm Signed and dated lower right; titled below. Horham Hall was built in Thaxted, Essex by Sir John Cutte in the early sixteenth century. The original hall was a timber-framed moated manor house built circa 1470, but it was largely demolished by Cutte, who built the present house between 1510 and 1515. Cutte was under-treasurer in the households of Henry VII and Henry VIII. The mansion was built in brick in two storeys in a quadrilateral layout with a gatehouse and incorporated some elements of the former building. The house was visited three times by Elizabeth I as the guest of Sir John Cutte. It is believed that the Tower was built for her to watch the local hunt. It was while staying at Horham in 1578 that the Queen received the envoy of the Duke of Alençon proposing marriage. John Chessell Buckler was a British architect, the eldest son of the architect John Buckler. His work included restorations of country houses and at the University of Oxford. Buckler received art lessons from the painter Francis Nicholson...
