Description: | Oil on canvas. Bolton Abbey was founded in the mid twelfth century. Once an Augustinian Priory, the estate is now owned by the Dukes of Devonshire. The ruins of the abbey have also been painted by Joseph Mallord William Turner, Thomas Girtin and Peter de Wint, while Sir Edwin Landseer painted an interior view of the abbey as it might have appeared when occupied, which was titled ‘Scene in the Olden Time at Bolton Abbey’ (c.1834; Chatsworth House, Derbyshire). | Subjects: | hill stream church windows topography tree landscape C19th cow archway stone/rock river abbey | Temporal: | 1851 | Source: | Government Art Collection | Creator: | Thomas Creswick | Identifier: | http://www.gac.culture.gov.uk/work.aspx?... | Go to resource |
