Description
Two statues at the Temple of the four winds at Castle Howard in Yorkshire, UK.
Castle Howard is a stately home in North Yorkshire, England, 15 miles (24 km) north of York. It is a private residence, and has been the home of the Carlisle branch of the Howard family for more than 300 years.
Statues, temples and follies dot the grounds and gardens of Castle Howard.
The Temple of the Four Winds lies at the eastern end of Temple Terrace, providing stunning views across the hills.
It was designed by Vanbrugh but remained unfinished at the time of his death in 1726; the interiors were finally decorated in 1738 by the stuccoist Francesco Vassalli.
The temple was originally used as a place for refreshment and reading, beneath it is a cellar where servants prepared the food they served to the family above.
