EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Trelissick estate, nestled in the picturesque village of Feock, Cornwall. The entrance front of this architectural masterpiece takes center stage with its grand pedimented portico, exuding an air of timeless elegance and sophistication. Built around 1825 by the esteemed P F Robinson, Trelissick stands as a testament to neo-Greek design at its most severe yet awe-inspiring. Renowned architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner hailed Trelissick as Cornwall's most austere neo-Greek mansion, a title that only adds to its allure and significance within the region's rich heritage. This remarkable photograph was expertly captured by Eric de Mare between 1945 and 1980, showcasing his keen eye for detail and ability to immortalize historic landmarks through his lens. The image invites us into a world where classical beauty meets natural splendor; it transports us back in time to an era when craftsmanship reigned supreme. With every intricate detail meticulously preserved in this print, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our architectural treasures for future generations. As we gaze upon this stunning portrayal of Trelissick's entrance front bathed in soft light, we cannot help but be captivated by its sheer majesty. It serves as a poignant reminder that history is not just confined within books but can also be experienced through visual storytelling like Eric de Mare's masterful photography.
