🏰 Audley Manor: The Idyllic Countryside from Novels

🎬 Jane Austen's romantic novels have been adapted into many films, such as "Pride and Prejudice," "Sense and Sensibility," "Emma," "Northanger Abbey," and more. Her novels reflect women's pursuit of social status and economic security through marriage, and they are part of the critical novels of the sensibility of the latter half of the 18th century. Moreover, her novels are part of the transition to realism in the 19th century. Thus, when visiting this place and seeing these landscapes, one is reminded of the classic scenes of beautiful men and women dating here and the turmoil in their inner worlds as depicted in the films. 🖼️ The former owner of this manor was of unparalleled status, which is reflected by the numerous oil portraits of characters indoors, indicating that the family of the manor owner was once full of talents and held a very high social status throughout the century. Even the servants' rooms were numerous. At its peak, the manor's construction area was two-thirds larger than it is now and has been used many times as a holiday palace for royal family members. This shows the striking similarities in art, aesthetics, and history between the East and the West. 🌳 In the vast area of the site, the buildings only occupy a small part. The central area is a wide river that runs through the entire park, slowly flowing and bringing vitality to the entire region's scenery. In addition to providing irrigation water, it is also a powerful flood drainage channel during rainy days. 📚 From these elegant architectural and landscape compositions, one can feel that the manor owner of the time had a very high aesthetic sense. The indoor rooms are filled with a variety of books, indicating that this family has received excellent cultural education from generation to generation. #FunHistoryFacts #Art #History #Nature #MySnapshots #Manor #JaneAusten #Landscape #Architecture #CountryLife #Scenery #Nobility #MingQing #AfternoonSun #Sunshine #Autumn #LateAutumn #Love
