Shortly after the eccentric novelist, collector, bibliophile, and plantation-owner William Beckford died in May of 1844, the book Views of Lansdown Tower was published, revealing Beckford's extraordinary retreat, its luxurious interiors, and the exquisite art collection he had assembled inside this fantastical architectural folly just outside Bath, in Somerset, England. Views was initiated by Willes Maddox under the patronage of Beckford, who is found in the book's subscribers list. Beckford had moved to Bath from his estate, Fonthill Abbey in Wiltshire, in 1822, and remained there until his death. In 1826, Beckford employed a young architect named Henry Goodridge (1797-1864) to build the tower and its adjoining library about a mile away from Beckford's residence in Crescent. Beckford's Tower, known initially as Lansdown Tower, was built in Italianate neo-classical style on Lansdown Hill. The Tower and its attached railings are now designated as a Grade I listed historic building by the UK. It is the only standing example of Beckford's architecture. Though he did not live there, Beckford used the tower as a showcase for his collection of art and fine books, and its crowning cupola as a belvedere for taking in picturesque vistas of the surrounding landscape. The book reproduces drawings by Maddox in lithographs by C. J. Richardson. Maddox later gained a reputation for painting the portraits of eminent Turks, and took up an invitation from the Sultan to work in Istanbul. Four of the book's 13 plates illustrate some of Beckford's objets d'art, including ceramics, ivories, and metalware, alongside his immaculate parlor furniture. The colored plates in order: I. Ornamental Title with View of Tower. II. Exterior of LansdownTower. III. The Vestibule. IV. The Scarlet Drawing Room. V. The Staircase. VI. View of the Belvedere. VII.
