EDITORS COMMENTS
Nutwell Court, Exeter: A Picturesque Georgian Neo-Classical Manor House Overlooking the River Exe This handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by John Gendall and published in Rudolph Ackermann's Repository of Arts in London in 1823, offers a captivating glimpse into the past with its depiction of Nutwell Court in Exeter. The manor house, which served as the seat of Sir Thomas Trayton Fuller-Eliott-Drake, stands proudly on the banks of the River Exe. The neo-classical design, with its grand portico entrance, exudes an air of elegance and refinement. The engraving transports us to a bygone era, inviting us to imagine the daily life of its inhabitants. The tranquil setting, with its lush greenery and the meandering river, provides a striking contrast to the grandeur of the manor house. The scene is further enhanced by the inclusion of a temple-like structure perched atop a hill in the distance, surrounded by a jungle of palm trees and other exotic foliage. The inclusion of various elements in the illustration, such as the elephant bivouac and the pass leading to Bengal and Bihar, suggests a connection to the Raj and the British Empire in India. This could indicate that the manor house's owner, Sir Thomas Trayton Fuller-Eliott-Drake, may have had ties to the colonial administration in India. The engraving provides a fascinating glimpse into the Regency era, offering a glimpse into the world of travel and exploration during this period. The picturesque scene invites us to imagine the adventures that may have awaited those who journeyed to exotic lands, from the bustling markets of the Ganges and Jumna to the serene beauty of the Indian countryside.
