  • 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.
