About This Piece
At approximately 19x15 inches, this well and tree platter depicts Raby Castle, a seat of much power through the years. In lovely condition, and ready for use or display. It will sit on a standard large display stand, or hang on the wall.
Taken from a Raby Castle webpage, the place is described thusly: "The Nevilles, responsible for fortifying the 14th century castle, were an influential family in the North who owned Raby until 1569 when Charles Neville, 6th Earl of Westmorland, participated in the failed Rising of the North plot to dethrone Queen Elizabeth. The castle and its lands were forfeited to the crown, and Charles later died in exile in Holland.
In 1626, Sir Henry Vane the Elder, Member of Parliament and important member of Charles I’s household, purchased Raby from the Crown. The present owner being the 12th Lord Barnard, who through his mother’s lineage also holds links to the original Nevilles of Raby."
I love the deep and fascinating history this pattern in the Angus Seat series by Ridgway brings to the table.
