Strawberry Hill House & Garden have made an appeal for public donations to help them acquire Johann Heinrich Müntz's South East View of Strawberry Hill House. Painted between 1755-8, the view was commissioned by its owner Horace Walpole and shows the building 'at the very moment the Gothic Revival was being born.' Fortunately, two generous supporters have pledged to match donations to this appeal to raise £85,000 to acquire the work. Click on the link above for more details on how to donate.
