Lot 155070: Nash J - Lithograph of Hever Castle in Kent 1869
This lithograph of the Bay Window in the Gallery at Hever Castle and Franks in Kent is from The Mansions of England in the Olden Time by Joseph Nash. Printed by M & N Hanhart and published by Henry Sotheran & Co., London, in four parts from 1869-1872.
Nash was a draftsman and lithographer of architectural views, trained by Augustus C. Pugin. He produced a number of folio series showing architectural images of England, both interiors and exteriors. This is an excellent example of a mid-nineteenth century architectural view and also a fascinating historical document.
This is regarded as Nash’s most famous work – a formidable series of views of Tudor domestic architecture.
