About the Item
Antique print titled 'Section of the Great Dining Room at Wilton (..)'.
View of the great dining room of Wilton House, also known as the 'Double Cube Room' this room was part of a design for a series of state rooms by the architects Inigo Jones (1573-1652) and his niece's husband John Webb (1611-1672) in the southern wing of Wilton House after a fire in c.1653; The room was built to house the family portraits of the Earls of Pembroke by Sir Anthony Van Dyck (1599-1641). This print originates from 'Vitruvius Britannicus' by Colen Campbell.
Wilton House is an English country house at Wilton near Salisbury in Wiltshire, which has been the country seat of the Earls of Pembroke for over 400 years. It was probably built on the site of the medieval Wilton Abbey. Following the Dissolution of the Monasteries, Henry VIII presented Wilton Abbey and its attached estates to William Herbert, 1st Earl of Pembroke. The present Grade I listed house is the result of rebuilding after a 1647 fire, although a small section of the house built for William Herbert survives; alterations were made in the early 19th and early 20th centuries. The house stands in gardens and a park which are also Grade I listed. While still a family home, the house and grounds are usually open to visitors during the summer months.
Artists and Engravers: Colen Campbell's Vitruvius Britannicus is considered one of the greatest eighteenth-century English architectural works. Campbell published the first three volumes between 1715 and 1725, but the text was continued in two subsequent volumes by Woolfe and Gandon in 1767 and 1771. The work is comprised of large, finely engraved illustrations, plans, and cross sections of English country houses and parks.
Condition: Very good, general age-related toning. Blank verso, please study image carefully.
