    Discover the hidden treasures of North-west Norfolk Private “connoisseur” visits to 3 magnificent houses where William Kent worked: Houghton, Holkham & Raynham Other private houses & gardens not normally accessible also included Wonderful gardens at their late summer best Comfortable country house style hotel in idyllic surroundings Holkham Hall North Norfolk's broad rolling acres have long been home to great estates and important country houses; the income from agriculture one source of much of the area’s wealth. A second, equally important source was trade with North West Europe and Scandinavia, managed through the mighty Hanseatic League, of which King’s Lynn was an important member. At the outset of this tour, a day will be spent in and around King’s Lynn, and we shall be guided by the town’s most informed local guide. He has arranged private access to the town’s most important recently restored historic house, in addition to some of the town’s fine churches and civic buildings. Thereafter, our days will be spent exploring the houses, gardens and wonderful churches of this part of the world, subject to any government restrictions that may be in force when we visit. A remarkable figure looms large over the best of these houses – the Yorkshire genius, William Kent. Houghton Hall was a ‘new build’ mansion, commissioned by the Prime Minister, Sir Robert Walpole, where Kent was called in to ‘mastermind’ the interiors and their decoration, most of which are remarkably well preserved. Raynham Hall was already a fine house when Kent was employed to adapt it to the latest ideas associated with a revival of interest in all things ‘Palladian’, his expertise honed during his time in Italy.

  • The Art of Conversation: Eighteenth-Century Mexican Casta Painting
    Graduate Journal of Visual and Material Culture Issue 5 I 2012 The Art of Conversation: Eighteenth-Century Mexican Casta Painting Mey-Yen Moriuchi ______________________________________________ Abstract: Traditionally, casta paintings have been interpreted as an isolated colonial Mexican art form and examined within the social historical moment in which they emerged. Casta paintings visually represented the miscegenation of the Spanish, Indian and Black African populations that constituted the new world and embraced a diverse terminology to demarcate the land’s mixed races. Racial mixing challenged established social and racial categories, and casta paintings sought to stabilize issues of race, gender and social status that were present in colonial Mexico. Concurrently, halfway across the world, another country’s artists were striving to find the visual vocabulary to represent its families, socio-economic class and genealogical lineage. I am referring to England and its eighteenth-century conversation pictures. Like casta paintings, English conversation pieces articulate beliefs about social and familial propriety. It is through the family unit and the presence of a child that a genealogical statement is made and an effigy is preserved for subsequent generations. Utilizing both invention and mimesis, artists of both genres emphasize costume and accessories in order to cater to particular stereotypes. I read casta paintings as conversations like their European counterparts—both internal conversations among the figures within the frame, and external ones between the figures, the artist and the beholder. It is my position that both casta paintings and conversation pieces demonstrate a similar concern with the construction of a particular self-image in the midst of societies that were apprehensive about the varying conflicting notions of socio-familial and socio-racial categories.

  • Foxhunting and the Landscape Between 1700 and 1900; with Particular Reference to Norfolk and Shropshire
    Foxhunting and the landscape between 1700 and 1900; with particular reference to Norfolk and Shropshire Jane Bevan Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of History October 2011 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on the condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived from it, may be published without acknowledgement Abstract This thesis explores the history of foxhunting from 1700 to 1900. It examines how perceptions of an ideal hunting country, and what constituted an elite quarry, altered in tandem with alterations to the English lowland countryside. The relationship between the landscape and changes bought about by the upheaval of enclosure and agricultural development are discussed, in the context of the evolution in practice and geographical spread of foxhunting, at a national, regional and county-wide level. Several long-held beliefs are challenged. The social history of foxhunting and the increased participation of both ‘polite’ urban neophytes and prosperous tenant farmers during the two centuries is compared with the declining involvement of women. The impact of hunt clubs and the rise of subscription packs in the two study areas is contrasted. The influence of changes in the landscape on foxhunting is considered alongside the reciprocal impact of foxhunters manipulating the physical surroundings to enhance their sport. A detailed study of the history of hunting and its most iconic feature, the covert, in Norfolk and Shropshire highlights the importance of landowners control over the countryside.

In our region, which has suffered the vicissitudes of industrial slumps and changing demographics alongside periods of rapid economic growth, this has led to a number of important buildings facing serious threats. Some of these are redundant farm buildings, mills and industrial structures, others are anything from private houses to ornamental follies.
