"Nash Court in Boughton, in the County of Kent" is an engraving from Edward Hasted’s *The History and Topographical Survey of the County of Kent* published in 1777-1790. The anonymous artist depicts the house, known as Mereworth House, which stands in a parkland setting with a body of water in the foreground and trees in the background. The house, a Palladian style structure, is shown in a somewhat idealized landscape, depicting the grandeur of the English countryside. The image is a prime example of 18th-century printmaking and topographical survey art.
