Sull’opera
Front elevation and ground plan of a building; to the right, sketch of a cook holding a "French cook's knife" in his right hand, drawing by designer and architect William Kent (1685-1748).
Kent visited Rome in 1715 where he met Richard Boyle, 3rd Earl of Burlington who became his patron. Boyle encouraged Kent's interest in architecture when they returned to London together and Kent soon started receiving commissions for buildings and furniture in the classical style. His most famous buildings include Holkham Hall, Norfolk, and the Horse Guards, Whitehall.
