This small Temple was built within the grounds of the 17th century house of Castle Howard, Yorkshire. It is one of the finest Palladian buildings of Europe and is based on the Villa Capra near Vicenza, Italy.
In 1995 the Honourable Simon and Mrs. Howard commissioned this model from Timothy Richards.
Each model is accompanied with a signed certificate from the Honourable Simon Howard who is the descendant of the Earl of Carlisle who originally commissioned the Temple from the architect Sir John Vanbrugh. Each model has a title plate of brass attached to the lead covered plinth. This plaque is hand engraved using copperplate lettering.
Weight: approximately 15 kg - Dimensions: diameter of base plinth is 20"
