EDITORS COMMENTS
Bask in the grandeur of Wrest Park's Baroque beauty as you gaze upon this enchanting view, captured by the lens of acclaimed photographer Matt Munro. The tranquil expanse of Long Water mirrors the clear blue sky above, creating a perfect reflection of the majestic Thomas Archer Pavilion. Dating back to 1709-11, this architectural marvel, designed by Thomas Archer, stands proudly in the heart of Wrest Park, a historic house and gardens in Silsoe, Bedfordshire. The Stuart-era dome, adorned with intricate ornamentation, rises majestically against the backdrop of the serene water, its golden dome glinting in the sunlight. The pavilion, a testament to the opulence of the past, is a breathtaking sight to behold. The symmetry of the architecture, the play of light on the water, and the lush greenery surrounding the scene, all come together to create an image that transports you to another era. Wrest Park, with its rich history and stunning gardens, offers a glimpse into the grandeur of the past. The Long Water, a man-made lake, was created in the late 17th century to provide a picturesque setting for the estate. The Thomas Archer Pavilion, with its elegant design and stunning location, adds to the overall charm of the park, making it a popular destination for history and nature enthusiasts alike. This photograph, taken by Matt Munro for Historic England, captures the essence of Wrest Park's beauty and history, inviting you to explore the wonders of the past and appreciate the timeless elegance of Baroque architecture.
