Winstanley (Henry, 1644-1703) The Prospect of the dwelling house of Hen: Winstanley Gent: att Littlebury in the County of Essex, forty Miles distant from London, on the Road to Cambridge, etching on laid paper, pencil inscriptions in lower margin, on laid paper without watermark, image approx. 245 x 390 mm (9 5/8 x 15 1/4 in), under glass, faint tape stains to the upper edge, minor toning, framed, [circa 1670-1690]Provenance:Collection of John and Eileen HarrisLiterature:cf. Taylor, Christopher, The House and Garden of Henry Winstanley, Littlebury, Landscape History, 2014, vol. 35, issue 2, 39-52.*** Henry Winstanley was an English painter, engineer, and merchant who constructed the first Eddystone Lighthouse after losing two of his ships on the Eddystone rocks. Winstanley developed an interest in engraving after a grand tour of Europe between 1669 and 1674, where he was impressed by Continental architecture and the engravings in which it was portrayed; it is said he studied with Wenceslaus Hollar upon his return.Winstanley was well known in Essex for his fascination with mechanical and hydraulic gadgets. The present etching shows the house he had built for himself at Littlebury, which he filled with whimsical mechanisms of his design and construction, and the "Essex House of Wonders" became a local landmark that was popular with visitors. One contemporary account of a visit to the house explained, after "being taken into one particular room of his house, and there observing an old slipper carelessly lying in the middle of the floor, if, as was natural, you gave it a kick with your foot, up started a figure before you; if you sat down in a chair, a couple of arms would immediately clasp you in, so as to render it impossible to disentangle yourself till your attendant set you at liberty; and if you sat down within a certain arbour by the side of the canal, you were forthwith sent out afloat to the middle of the canal from whence it was impossible to escape …".

The two earlier timber structures, by Winstanley and Rudyard, had both been destroyed. Building with masonry, Smeaton devised and ingenious method of dovetailing and interlocking the blocks of stone to ensure maximum strength, and his example was followed for later towers.
