Wenceslaus Hollar - View of Albury
This view of Arundel's country home in Albury pictures the bustling social life enjoyed here before the outbreak of the English Civil War. Hollar's patron Thomas Howard, Earl of Arundel, was very fond of the locality - he is even said to have wished it to be his burial place.
