## Description

The Paul Mellon Centre is an educational charity dedicated to advancing original research in the field of British art and architecture across all historical periods. Established to foster a deeper understanding of country house studies, the Centre launched "Art & the Country House" in 2020, marking its fiftieth anniversary. This innovative online publication, edited by Martin Postle, features in-depth case studies on significant country houses including Castle Howard, Doddington Hall, Mells Manor, and more. Each case study carefully illustrates the art collections and display histories of these historic homes, ensuring a diverse exploration of themes such as custom picture galleries and the socio-political contexts of art acquisition. In addition to case studies, the publication incorporates eight thematic essays, detailed catalogues, and unique photography, creating a comprehensive resource for researchers and enthusiasts alike. With open-access digital publication, the Paul Mellon Centre makes its wealth of knowledge broadly accessible, inviting deeper engagement with the rich tapestry of British art history.
