About the book

In 1779 the family of Sir Robert Walpole, Britain's first prime minister, sold his remarkable art collection to Catherine the Great, Empress of Russia. More than two centuries later, these masterpieces, rarely seen outside Russia since that time, are returning to Houghton Hall, the great house built by Walpole. This book illustrates these superlative work hanging once again in William Kent's magnificent interiors. Exhibition: Houghton Hall, King's Lynn, Norfolk, UK (15.5.-15.9.2013).
