EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic beauty of Somerhill, a country house located near Tunbridge in the County of Kent, England. The image is an etching and engraving from Edward Hasted's renowned publication, "The History and Topographical Survey of the County of Kent" which was published between 1777 and 1790. In this 18th-century scene, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur of Somerhill House amidst its picturesque landscape. The Jacobean architecture stands proudly against the backdrop of rolling hills and lush greenery. Its stately presence evokes a sense of history and elegance that has withstood the test of time. Adding to the charm of this image are cattle grazing peacefully in the foreground. Their presence serves as a reminder that Somerhill House was not only a symbol of wealth and power but also an integral part of rural life in Britain during this period. Richard Bernard Godfrey's masterful etching beautifully captures every intricate detail, showcasing his talent as an artist. This artwork now resides at The Metropolitan Museum Of Art (The Met), where it continues to be admired for its historical significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported into a bygone era filled with architectural splendor, natural beauty, and pastoral tranquility—a true testament to Britain's rich heritage.
