Canons Ashby is an historic country home in Northamptonshire owned by Britain’s National Trust. The home of the Dryden family since it was built, Canons Ashby House has remained mostly unaltered c. 1710. There is a formal garden and a church, which is all that remains of the Augustinian priory from which the house took its name.
A National Trust representative who thought Ken would really appreciate the house and its environs suggested creating a series of paintings of Canons Ashby to Ken. Ken spent a week living in the Landmark Trust apartment in the house’s tower, and during that week sketched the place with his camera. The resulting paintings were exhibited by the National Trust on site at Canons Ashby.
