EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "North West View of Wakefield Lodge in Whittlebury Forest, Northamptonshire, 1767" takes us on a journey back in time to the picturesque English countryside. Created by Paul Sandby in the late 18th century, this artwork showcases his incredible talent for capturing the beauty of landscapes. The scene depicts an enchanting estate nestled within Whittlebury Forest. The sprawling parkland is adorned with lush greenery and majestic trees that seem to stretch endlessly towards the sky. A herd of graceful deer roam freely across the grounds, adding a touch of natural elegance to the setting. Intriguingly, we catch glimpses of daily life unfolding within this idyllic landscape. A horse-drawn coach and trap can be seen making their way through a winding path while a couple strolls alongside them. Further along the riverbank, individuals gather wood bundles as they go about their tasks. As our eyes wander further into the distance, we spot a sailboat gracefully gliding downriver under clear blue skies. The presence of riders on horseback adds an air of sophistication and grandeur to this Georgian-era scene. It is worth noting that these stunning gardens were designed by none other than Capability Brown himself in 1740 – testament to his renowned expertise in creating breathtaking landscapes. Overall, Sandby's masterful use of pen and ink with watercolor brings this historic moment alive before our eyes. This print captures not only nature's beauty but also offers us
