John Vanbrugh: The Drama of Architecture (23)

A very nice review by William Aslet of my biography of John Vanbrugh which appeared in the February issue of The Critic has now been posted online:-

I particularly like Aslet’s description of Vanbrugh’s personality as ‘by turns flawed and deeply sympathetic’. Just so.

Standard
