He brought with him a tradition of topographical precision and atmospheric sensitivity that the English countryside had never received before — and he turned it, in 1675, toward a Kent estate called Bayhall.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis journal carries his view.

The back cover extends the panorama into the wider Kentish landscape.
