English Palladianism: Stourhead | Stourhead House, East facade, based on Palladio's Villa Emo.

One of the most notable examples of Palladianism in Ireland is the Castletown House, near Dublin.

Sir John Summerson included Dance in a list of London architects who he felt debased Palladianism, calling his Mansion House " cramped and overdressed ".

Castletown House is the largest and one of the most important country houses in Ireland, it also claims to be the house which introduced Palladianism to Ireland.

Although many of these mansions, such as Pearce and Cassels joint design Summerhill House, were destroyed in the numerous Irish rebellions, many examples of this unique marrying of the rococo and Palladian still remain today as unique examples of Irish Palladianism.

While adhering as in other countries to the basic ideals of Palladio, it is often truer to them – perhaps because it was often designed by architects who had come directly from mainland Europe, and therefore were not influenced by the evolution that Palladianism was undergoing in Britain.

This long building time explains the flaws and variations in design: when building commenced in 1740, Palladianism was the height of fashion, but, by the time of its completion, Palladianism had been completely succeeded by Neoclassicism ; thus, the house is a marriage of both styles.

Later, as Leoni lay dying in 1746, Lord Fitzwalter sent him a further £ 8 " par charité " He is known to have had a wife, Mary, and two sons, one of whom is " thought " to have been a clerk to the great exponent of Palladianism Matthew Brettingham.

Regarding its distinctive features, Shand-Tucci writes “ It is in feeling wildly Baroque ( of all things )— a welcome touch of flamboyance for what would otherwise have been a rather staid clubhouse for the Signet … the graphic quality of Cram & Goodhue ’ s and LaRose ’ s new frontspiece is actually rather reminiscent of book design ( not to mention the Palladianism of several Tory Row mansions ), and centers on a two story pedimented Ionic pavilion displaying the Signet arms ….

* Georgian Britain, 1714 – 1837, covering Palladianism, Rococo, Chinoiserie, Neoclassicism, the Regency, the influence of Chinese, Indian and Egyptian styles, and the early Gothic Revival

In the early 19th century the romantic medieval gothic style appeared as a backlash to the symmetry of Palladianism, and such buildings as Fonthill Abbey were built.

During the early 19th century the romantic medieval Gothic revival style was developed as a reaction to the symmetry of Palladianism, and such buildings as Fonthill Abbey were built.

It was this adaption of the wings and pavilions into the body of the house that was to be a hallmark of the 18th-century Palladianism that spread across Europe, and of which Leoni was an early exponent.

However, at this early stage his career Leoni appears to have been still following the earlier and more renaissance-inspired Palladianism which had been imported to England in the 17th century by Inigo Jones.

By the early 20th century, the style of Palladianism which Leoni's books and works did so much to promote, was so quintessentially English that the fact that it was regarded as purely Italian at the time of its inception was largely forgotten.

In the early 19th century, the romantic medieval gothic style appeared, partially as a backlash to the symmetry of Palladianism, and can be seen in buildings such as Bristol City Museum and Art Gallery, Royal West of England Academy, and The Victoria Rooms.

The Georgian architecture of the 18th century was an evolved form of Palladianism.

Whatever the name or the origin, this form of window has probably become one of the most enduring features of Palladio's work seen in the later architectural styles evolved from Palladianism.

Of all the country houses of the 18th century, its façades replicate in undiluted form not only the classical villas of Italy on which Palladianism was founded, but also the temples of antiquity on which Neoclassicism was based.

By the reign of Charles I, Inigo Jones and his form of Palladianism had changed the face of British domestic architecture completely.

A feature of American Palladianism was the re-emergence of the great portico, which again, as in Italy, fulfilled the need of protection from the sun ; the portico in various forms and size became a dominant feature of American colonial architecture.

In 1738 Isaac Ware, with the encouragement of Richard Boyle, third Earl of Burlington, produced a more accurate translation of Palladio's work with illustrations which were faithful to the originals, but Leoni's changes and inaccuracies continued to influence Palladianism for generations.

In the Italianate style, the models and architectural vocabulary of 16th-century Italian Renaissance architecture, which had served as inspiration for both Palladianism and Neoclassicism, were synthesized with picturesque aesthetics.

In the north European countries the portico had become a mere symbol, often closed, or merely hinted at in the design by pilasters, and sometimes in very late examples of English Palladianism adapted to become a porte-cochere ; in America, the Palladian portico regained its full glory.

Unlike in France and Germany, the English adoption of the Rococo style was patchy rather than whole-hearted, and there was resistance to it on nationalist grounds, led by Richard Boyle, 3rd Earl of Burlington and William Kent, who promoted styles in interior design and furniture to match the Palladianism of the architecture they produced together, also beginning the influential British tradition of the landscape garden, according to Nikolaus Pevsner " the most influential of all English innovations in art ".

From the latter half of the 19th century it was rivalled by the Gothic revival, whose champions, such as Augustus Pugin, remembering the origins of Palladianism in ancient temples, deemed it too pagan for Protestant and Anglo-Catholic worship.

Whatever the reason, Palladianism still had to be adapted for the wetter, colder weather.

This would also be a feature of the neoclassical style that followed Palladianism.

Irish Palladianism: Russborough, Ireland in 1826.

One of the most pioneering Irish architects was Sir Edward Lovett Pearce ( 1699 – 1733 ), who became one of the leading advocates of Palladianism in Ireland.

Palladianism in Ireland often differed from that elsewhere in Europe because of the ornate rococo interiors, often with stucco by Robert West and the Lafranchini brothers.

Although there were some styles that belonged primarily to one nation, such as Palladianism in Great Britain or Louis Quinze in French furniture, others, such as the Rococo and Neoclassicism were perpetuated throughout Western Europe.

* Wittkower, Rudolf, Palladio and English Palladianism.

Sir William Chambers was at the forefront, designing in Palladianism style, while Chambers ' rival, Robert Adam's designs had Roman influence, in a style known as Adam style.

Aside from Palladio's designs, his publications contributed to Palladianism.

Exponents of Palladianism include the 18th century Venetian architect, Giacomo Leoni, who published an authoritative four-volume work on Palladio and his architectural concepts.

From the 17th century Palladio's interpretation of this classical architecture was adapted as the style known as Palladianism.

Palladianism became popular briefly in Britain during the mid-17th century.

In the 18th century they became an important part of Palladianism — see photograph of Woburn Abbey below.

Isolated forms of Palladianism throughout the world were brought about in this way.

The " Palladianism " of Jones and his contemporaries and later followers was a style largely of facades, and the mathematical formulae dictating layout were not strictly applied.

Following the Stuart restoration Jones's Palladianism was eclipsed by the baroque designs of such architects as William Talman and Sir John Vanbrugh, Nicholas Hawksmoor, and even Jones ' pupil John Webb.

This severe lack of ornamentation was to be a feature of the Palladianism.

It was the development of the flanking wings that was to cause English Palladianism to evolve from being a pastiche of Palladio's original work.
