There are not many things worth investing huge amounts on, but a place to call home is definitely the exception. City apartments tend to cost a fortune these days, which many correctly consider to be excessive, especially when compared to the prices of rural manors.
Aristocrats of old enjoy the peaceful existence away from the noise and dirt of crowded cities, a message that beautiful manor paintings still convey. The passing seasons had their very special charm back then and thanks to talented artists, we have plenty of manor prints dedicated to each season.
The number of manor photographs represents only a small fraction of the artwork displayed here, which makes perfect sense. Many of the remaining mansions are privately owned and their proprietors have no reason to excessively advertise their properties. Even so, if you are in the market for high-resolution photos of famous manor, there is no reason to look elsewhere for the best photographs money can buy.
