Belvoir, a name that echoes through time and across continents. From the grandeur of Pynes House in Exeter, Devon, built in 1825, to the picturesque Belvoir Bay on the Herm Channel Islands, and is a name associated with beauty and elegance. In the world of art, it has left its mark. Sir Francis Grant's masterpiece "The Melton Breakfast" captures the essence of English country life at Belvoir Castle. This magnificent castle stands proudly in Leicestershire, England, between Red Mile and Belvoir. Speaking Castle, it has been an enduring symbol of power and nobility since the 19th century. Its majestic presence can be seen in Churton's Portrait and Landscape Gallery from 1836. The castle was home to John Henry Manners, 5th Duke of Rutland during his reign.
