Description: | The painting is a view of Wollaton Hall from the north east, showing the east front with staircase entrance. Some figures can be seen strolling around the building. There is a man carrying a spade and another man with a child in a grove of tall trees at left foreground. Nottingham has another painting of Wollaton Hall by Hendrick de Cort (NCM 1957-10), in which the hall is seen on a hill in the distance. It is thought that both paintings, which are almost identical in size, were probably commissioned at the same time as a pair. | Subjects: | landscape; place (Wollaton Hall Nottingham); buildings and gardens; figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Cort, Hendrik Frans de (Flemish painter, 1742-1810) Æ Attributed to | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8526... | Go to resource |
