		Stowe is one of the foremost neo-classical private houses of the 18th century, set in one of the most stunning picturesque landscaped gardens surviving from that period.
		In contrast, Stowe illustrates the rise of the picturesque, where the house is designed alongside its gardens to be seen in a series of views and scenes as visitors approached it or progressed around its grounds; it was the largest and most important of the ‘temples’ within the grounds.
		Stowe House was the seat of this remarkable family, and the design of the house and its surrounding gardens reflects their rise to prominence, as they sought to maintain and emphasise their social and political position at the height of fashion.
