Badminton, Drawing of an Arch RP/1/1/2/4

An ink and pencil drawing on paper of a stone archway. Some of the dimensions are included. Undated, it is likely to be a preliminary drawing for RP/1/1/2/20.

The Badminton Estate, in the Gloucestershire countryside, has been home to the Dukes of Beaufort since the late 17th century. Here, at the Cottage, Page helped to create a series of elegant yet relaxed garden rooms. His work there spanned two decades, and the final designs were among his last.
