Boughton House : The English Versailles Hardback
by Dr Tessa Murdoch
Hardback
- Information
Description
Boughton House in Northamptonshire is a house of contrasts.
Its magnificent, and at the same time, formal exterior in the French style gives little hint of the rambling Tudor manor house embedded within.
Involvement with the law and politics at the highest level generated the wealth of its founders and builders, but enlightened artistic patronage and a strong aesthetic sense have been characteristic of many generations of the Dukes of Montagu and of Buccleuch since the 17th century.
This book looks at the house and its furnishings.
