About the Item

Description: Antique print titled 'North Front of Foremark (..)'. Old engraving of Foremarke Hall, a Georgian-Palladian country house and manor house. This print originates from 'Vitruvius Britannicus' by Colen Campbell. Foremarke Hall is a Georgian-Palladian country house and manor house. Completed in 1762, the Hall is located at the manor (hamlet) of Foremark, near the hamlets of Ingleby, Ticknall, Milton, and the village of Repton in South Derbyshire, England. It is the current home of the Repton Preparatory School (known as Repton Prep). Before becoming the Preparatory School, Foremarke Hall was the ancestral home of the Burdett family of Bramcote. It is a Grade I listed building. The school and a Great Western Railway "Modified Hall" class steam locomotive, no. 7903, are named after this hall. 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: Good, age-related toning. Blank verso. Minor wear, please study image carefully.
