EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Farnham House, located in the picturesque County of Cavan, Ireland. The engraving, created by Alexander Francis Lydon and later reproduced by Benjamin Fawcett using the Baxter process, beautifully captures the external view of this architectural marvel. Built in 1700 and redesigned by James Wyatt in 1795 for Barry Maxwell, the 1st Earl of Farnham, this historic house exudes grandeur and elegance. The image also highlights the extension made to Farnham House in 1802 by architect Francis Johnston for John James Maxwell, the 2nd Earl. This addition further enhanced its already impressive stature. With its intricate design and meticulous craftsmanship, it stands as a testament to both architectural brilliance and historical significance. The enchanting woodblock print transports us back to the late nineteenth century when Reverend Francis Orpen Morriss compiled his series of picturesque views depicting notable seats of noblemen and gentlemen across Great Britain and Ireland. Published in London in 1880 by William Mackenzie, these prints provided a glimpse into British culture during that era. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are reminded not only of the beauty found within architecture but also of our connection to history. It serves as a reminder that even centuries-old buildings can continue to inspire awe with their timeless charm.
