The country house was the focal point of Georgian architecture,
landscape and society. This book explores the meaning of this
distinct cultural form using a wide range of examples and
approaches. Dana Arnold presents an analysis of the social and
cultural significance of the country house, and her work is
complemented by essays from experts in a variety of disciplines.
Illustrations, showing exteriors, interiors and landscapes of
houses ranging from Blenheim and Harewood to lesser known examples
such as A la Ronde, provide a thorough historical and visual survey
of the period. This title offers fresh interpretations and enables
the reader to gain an insight into the pivotal role the country
house played in 18th- and early 19th-century society.
