Longleat House postcard is by North East artist Emily Ward from her art portfolio of the South West.
The palatial and striking Elizabethan mansion stands proudly under a moody blue veiled sky. The golden tones of Longleat House have been rendered with tiny splashes of pink on Emily’s art postcard.
The pathway leading to the stately home has been shaded with greens and colourful paint splatters. The bright and cheerful wildflowers dance merrily in front of the tall water fountains and seem to be celebrating the grandeur of this Grade I listed building.

Longleat House
The Grade I listed Longleat House in Wiltshire was built by Sir John Thynn between 1568 and 1580. It is regarded as one of the finest examples of Elizabethan architecture and has lovely landscaped gardens.
The Thynne family have lived there for sixteen generations and have amassed one of the largest private collections which includes paintings, historic books, tapestries and furniture.
Longleat House
is home to the 8th Marquess and Marchioness of Bath. The estate and house was opened to the public in 1949 and is now a major tourist attraction.
