Description |
English: Windsor Castle A prospect of Windsor Castle, which is one of several produced by the artist. This one dates to about 1690. The scene shows the whole panorama of the castle. On the tree-lined roadway which runs through the park below the castle is a coach and horses with other mounted figures. The far busier river runs across the front of the painting. All sorts of craft are shown from small fishing craft to royal barges. It is possible that the artist may have been commissioned to paint topographical views showing some of the royal palaces after the Restoration as the NMM has another by Vorsterman showing one of his versions of Greenwich, also a royal palace (BHC1808). Both were presented as a pair to the Naval Gallery of Greenwich Hospital by the executors of Samuel Enderby, in 1830. Enderby was a well-known London whaling entrepreneur, with a base on the East Greenwich waterfront. |
