EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent north entrance porch of Audley End, a historic treasure nestled within the picturesque Audley Park in Saffron Walden, Essex. Commissioned by Lord Braybrooke, C C Neville, who was the proud owner of Audley End at that time, this image captures the grandeur and architectural brilliance of this iconic structure. Audley End House was constructed between 1605 and 1614 by John Thorpe and Bernard Janssen under the patronage of Earl of Suffolk, Treasurer to James I. The Bedford Lemere daybook reveals an intriguing fact about its funding - large sums were received from Spain by the Countess for its construction. This financial support played a significant role in shaping Audley End into what it stands as today. The architect responsible for this masterpiece is believed to be a relative of Cornelius Jansen, renowned portrait painter during that era. With such artistic lineage behind its creation, it's no wonder that every detail exudes elegance and sophistication. H Bedford Lemere skillfully captured this Elizabethan porch through his lens with remarkable precision. His print preserves not only the physical beauty but also reflects upon the historical significance held within these walls. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the splendor and opulence that once graced Audley End House. It serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and reminds us to cherish these architectural marvels for generations to come.
