Description: This fine print, “Newby Hall, Yorkshire: Newby the Seat of the Honourable Sir Edward Blackett in the West Riding of the County of Yorke,” published by The Hannibal Press in 2021, captures the rich history and unique layout of Newby Hall and its surrounding estate. It has been edited and re-coloured after the original engraving by Kip, Johannes After Knijff, Leendert. Printed on high-quality 310gsm Canson Edition Etching paper, this limited edition map (only 95 copies, each numbered in pencil) features the blind-embossed stamp of The Hannibal Press.

Historical Context: Designed by Christopher Wren, Newby Hall was built between 1691 and 1695. Shortly afterwards the owner, Sir Edward Blackett, commissioned Peter Aram as head gardener to lay out formal gardens and avenues in keeping with the period. Very little of Aram’s layout for Newby remains today, with the Lime Avenue to the far west being the only area of this elaborate design remaining within the garden. Interestingly there is another section of the radiating Lime Avenues on the Kip engraving extending through the farm land towards Ripon Cathedral. The working area, including the bothy, stables and kitchen garden can be seen much further west than they are now. These original structures are close to the foundations of the earlier Newby house which Blackett demolished.
