EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic north elevation of Heale House, a true gem among English manor houses. Originally constructed in the late 16th century by Sir William Greene, this architectural marvel underwent significant expansion during the 17th century. Notably, it served as a hiding place for Charles II in 1651 before his escape to France. The photograph beautifully captures the newly built north front of Heale House, seamlessly blending with its original architecture. This stunning transformation was carried out by Detmar Blow for the Honorable Louis Greville, who acquired the property in 1894. The meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this grand structure. Surrounded by lush grounds and an enchanting garden, Heale House exudes timeless elegance and charm. A magnificent cedar tree stands tall next to its exterior, adding a touch of natural beauty to this picturesque scene. The photographer skillfully captures both the c20th alterations that have enhanced this country house's allure and its rich c17th architecture. Through their lens, we are transported into a world where history meets modernity. This remarkable photograph is not just a testament to exceptional photography skills but also serves as a visual reminder of the enduring legacy of Heale House. It invites us to appreciate its splendor while immersing ourselves in its tranquil gardens and captivating surroundings.
