Framed Manor Art

The manor building is certainly exquisite and striking to view, which may be why it has become a part of framed manor art pieces. These images are put together by artists who have chosen to work their creativity around the manor building itself. A manor house, also known as a fortified manor house refers to a country house that has historically formed the center of a manor. The term may also be used to describe a smaller country house that belonged to upper class families.

The manor houses are not built with the strong fortification of a castle, which we can also see in the framed manor art paintings. The majority of the manor houses are fortified partly and enclosed within ditches and walls. “Cranbourne, England” by Charlie Waite is a beautiful example of this as the artist’s painting only shows the front part of the manor with the rest covered in trees and ditches.
