This engraving by Richard Bernard Godfrey, created between 1777 and 1790, depicts Bradborne, a country house in Kent, England. Godfrey's etching, part of Edward Hasted's "The History and Topographical Survey of the County of Kent", showcases the house's serene setting amidst a picturesque landscape, with trees framing the estate and a carriage traversing the road in the foreground. The detailed depiction of the building and surrounding scenery demonstrates the artist's keen observation of the natural world and his ability to translate it into a beautiful and informative image.
