Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Shortlisted for the Architectural Book of the Year Award 2025An enduring myth of Georgian architecture is that it was purely the pursuit of male architects and their wealthy male patrons. History states that it was men who owned grand estates and houses, who commissioned famous architects, and who embarked upon elaborate architectural schemes. Hidden Patrons dismantles this myth - revealing instead that women were at the heart of the architectural patronage of the day, exerting far more influence and agency than has previously been recognised. Architectural drawing and design, discourse, and patronage were interests shared by many women in the eighteenth century. Far from being the preserve of elite men, architecture was a passion shared by both sexes, intellectually and practically, as long as they possessed sufficient wealth and autonomy.In an accessible, readable account, Hidden Patrons uncovers the role of women as important patrons and designers of architecture and interiors in eighteenth-century Britain and Ireland. Exploring country houses, Georgian townhouses, villas, estates, and gardens, it analyses female patronage from across the architectural spectrum, and examines the work of a range of pioneering women from grand duchesses to businesswomen to lowly courtesans. Re-examining well-known Georgian masterpieces alongside lesser-known architectural gems, Hidden Patrons unearths unseen archival material to provide a fascinating new view of the role of women in the architecture of the Georgian era. Outgrowth of the author's thesis (doctoral)--University of Cambridge, 2018, under the title: Maids, wives and widows: female architectural patronage in eighteenth-century Britain.

Aggiungi al carrelloHardback. Condizione: New. The country house dining room was an elaborate theatre for Georgian elites to entertain their guests and, more importantly, show-off their wealth, power and social status. Every detail was carefully orchestrated, usually by the lady of the house, from the decor and tableware to the food and drink served. Decorated with fine art, antique sculptures, and lavish furnishings, the dining room was governed by strict dining etiquette and social rituals. It was expected for guests to eat and drink to excess, so it is perhaps unsurprising that in the Georgian era we see the development of supposed miracle cures for obesity, alcoholism and related illnesses. Drawing on previously unpublished contemporary accounts of feasts at Holkham Hall, Hardwick Hall and Blenheim Palace, among others, Amy Boyington brings the Georgian dining experience to life and charts how the dining room encapsulated the intricate cultural and political dynamics of the 18th century.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Combining architectural, social, and cultural history to explore the significance of the Country House Dining Room during the Georgian era The eighteenth-century country house dining room was a symbol of social status, wealth, and cultural refinement, operating as both a functional space and a theatrical venue for displaying power. Drawing on the most fashionable architectural styles of the day, these rooms were meticulously crafted to convey the owner's affluence and sophistication. The design and decoration of the dining room itself became an integral part of the dining experience, with fine art, antique sculptures, and exquisite furnishings enhancing the room's grandeur. Table settings, featuring intricate porcelain, silverware, and glassware emphasised the importance of aesthetic presentation, further reinforcing the owner's social aspirations. This book charts how the country house dining room encapsulated the social, cultural, and political dynamics of the Georgian era. Through its design, rituals, and contradictions, it served as a microcosm of the broader societal values and hierarchies of the time. Dining was not merely about sustenance, but a reflection of status, identity, and the complexities of social interaction.
