EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases William Kent's first design for the Exedra in Chiswick, a stunning architectural masterpiece. Created using pen and ink with wash on paper, this artwork measures 32.9x51.5 cm and is part of The Devonshire Collections at Chatsworth. Although this particular design was not carried out, possibly due to its prominent or expensive nature, Kent wasted no time transferring it to the Elysian Fields at Stowe where Lord Cobham's resources were more abundant. This decision speaks volumes about Kent's adaptability and his dedication to creating grandiose landscapes that would leave a lasting impression. The image portrays a neoclassical structure set amidst meticulously landscaped gardens and grounds. The Palladian influence is evident in the architecture, showcasing the Georgian era's love for symmetry and elegance. The exedra itself features curved concave walls adorned with sculptures, adding an air of sophistication to the scene. Surrounding it are lush lawns, picturesque trees, and carefully planned plantings that enhance the overall aesthetic appeal. While this specific design may have remained unexecuted in Chiswick, its beauty lives on through this remarkable photo print. It serves as a testament to Kent's visionary talent as an architect and landscape designer who left an indelible mark on British art history.
