Description & Specifications

Created over four decades from the 1720s to the 1760s by the highly educated, visionary, and ambitious Earl of Leicester, Holkham stands as a masterpiece of Palladian architecture. Lavishly illustrated and featuring extensive essays, this volume invites us on a magnificent journey through an incredibly well-preserved home, complete with its stunningly decorated interiors and the remarkable collection of artworks that remain in place. Lord Leicester envisioned Holkham as the ideal house and setting for the ancient sculptures, distinguished paintings, and other treasures he acquired during his Grand Tour. The unique Marble Hall and the Gallery revive and celebrate the values and virtues of ancient Rome, while the Saloon and state rooms exude a baroque sense of grandeur and splendor. With the original family still in stewardship, Holkham is a unique survivor of the golden age of English country house culture.
