  • Wren and the English Baroque
    What is English Baroque? • An architectural style promoted by Christopher Wren (1632-1723) that developed between the Great Fire (1666) and the Treaty of Utrecht (1713). It is associated with the new freedom of the Restoration following the Cromwell’s puritan restrictions and the Great Fire of London provided a blank canvas for architects. In France the repeal of the Edict of Nantes in 1685 revived religious conflict and caused many French Huguenot craftsmen to move to England. • In total Wren built 52 churches in London of which his most famous is St Paul’s Cathedral (1675-1711). Wren met Gian Lorenzo Bernini (1598-1680) in Paris in August 1665 and Wren’s later designs tempered the exuberant articulation of Bernini’s and Francesco Borromini’s (1599-1667) architecture in Italy with the sober, strict classical architecture of Inigo Jones. • The first truly Baroque English country house was Chatsworth, started in 1687 and designed by William Talman. • The culmination of English Baroque came with Sir John Vanbrugh (1664-1726) and Nicholas Hawksmoor (1661-1736), Castle Howard (1699, flamboyant assemble of restless masses), Blenheim Palace (1705, vast belvederes of massed stone with curious finials), and Appuldurcombe House, Isle of Wight (now in ruins). Vanburgh’s final work was Seaton Delaval Hall (1718, unique in its structural audacity). Vanburgh was a Restoration playwright and the English Baroque is a theatrical creation. In the early 18th century the English Baroque went out of fashion. It was associated with Toryism, the Continent and Popery by the dominant Protestant Whig aristocracy. The Whig Thomas Watson-Wentworth, 1st Marquess of Rockingham, built a Baroque house in the 1720s but criticism resulted in the huge new Palladian building, Wentworth Woodhouse, we see today.

  • Tudor Classical Architecture
    Birkbeck BA History of Art, Art and Architecture at the Tudor Courts, Year 4 Laurence Shafe To What Extent and For What Reasons Did the Classical Tradition of Architecture Appeal to Tudor Patrons During the Reigns of Henry VIII and Edward VI? Laurence Shafe Page 1 of 17 Laurence Shafe, Birkbeck BA History of Art, Art and Architecture at the Tudor Courts, Year 4 To What Extent and For What Reasons Did the Classical Tradition of Architecture Appeal to Tudor Patrons During the Reigns of Henry VIII and Edward VI? The conventional historical view has been that a classical tradition re-emerged in Italy and slowly spread across the rest of Europe. England was thought to be late in accepting the classical style and when it did it was ‘not permitted to develop beyond an initial stage of applied ornamentation’ as it was believed the intellectual understanding was missing.1 Buildings such as Somerset House and Longleat were seen as early examples but, apart from those designed by Inigo Jones, country houses in a classical style were not thought to have become popular until the eighteenth century. Recently Jonathan Foyle has put forward an alternative thesis. An emergent interest in humanistic studies by the English Court circle, coupled with the placement of English representatives in Rome, led to the purchase of Italian architectural treatises…by1490. These abstract principles and prescriptions were interpreted by the circle of Wolsey and his masons and embedded within an established architecture…just as the contemporary Florentines, Romans, Venetians, Milanese and French all forged Renaissance buildings to theoretical guidelines set within the identity of their own genius loci, and according to their own political motivations.2 Both views accept that there were classical elements but the key issue that separates them is whether such classical additions were well informed.

  • Eltham Palace: Its Chapels and Chaplains
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 83 1968 ELTHAM PALACE: ITS CHAPELS AND CHAPLAINS By H. J. PRAGNELL ELTHAM PALACE as we see it today is represented by a fifteenth- century Great Hall, stone and brick walls surrounding the moat, and a triple-arched stone bridge thought to have been rebuilt in the reign of Edward IV. The only pictorial record of the complete palace known to exist, the engraving by Peter Stent made about 1650, is inaccurate in some details and is in any case drawn from a considerable distance outside the moated area. It may well be that Stent never saw the palace and made his engraving from somebody else's drawing. Nonsuch Palace which was once thought to have little pictorial evidence surviving is rich in comparison with Eltham. We are fortunate, however, in possessing two plans of Eltham by John Thorpe which are thought to have been made about 1590 but may in fact be slightly later. Accounts for 1603-04 record payment for 'measuring' the plan of the house,1 whereas no such payment occurs in the accounts c. 1590 though the annual records of repair work are complete for this period. One plan covers the outer court, the other the moated area. Both have been carefully studied and were redrawn as a single plan for inclusion in Clapham and Godfrey's Famous Buildings and their Story, 1913. From the plan of the moated area it is possible to see the approximate shape and proportions of the Great Chapel as it existed in the sixteenth century. This plan will be referred to later in connection with the rebuilding of the chapel by order of Henry VIII.

Designed and typeset by Clive Orton in Gill Sans MT, using PagePlus X7 software. 2 Discoveries In 1923 local architect Charles Marshall was surprised to see archaeological remains when a garden in Parkside, Cheam, was being levelled for a new tennis court. A ‘dig’ revealed the foundations of a medieval pottery kiln, as well as fragments of many waster pots of that period. There was a lot of interest nationally in his discovery, because this was the first medieval pottery kiln to be recognised archaeologically in England. In fact, others had been found in the 19th century, but they had been thought to be of Roman date. Marshall published the results of his work very quickly, in the following year. Marshall continued to keep his eyes open for further discoveries in the area, and was rewarded in 1936 when more waster pottery of the same date was found behind the shop at 19 High Street, Cheam.
