Description: New York, Harry N. Abrams, Inc, 1989. Hardcover. Slate gray cloth, gilt letters on spine & front cover, cream & color illus. dust jacket, 13 pp. of text, plus pages of 45 color illus. "A perfect early-eighteenth-century Georgian limestone manor house situated in the wild, overgrown patchwork countryside near Kilkenny, Ireland, is a subject that captivated photographer Andrew Bush [American, b. 1956] and inspired him to create this book. Many times over a three-year period, from 1979 to 1982, Bush visited the 1737 Anglo-Irish manor Bonnettstown Hall and the four elderly aristocrats who inhabited it. This stunning volume displays forty-five color photographs that are part of the intimate visual record he made while there: the interior and exterior of an estate whose inhabitants were members of a family that had lived there for over two centuries."
