However, these works are rather different.

Born in 1948, Sykes left Eton to attend Ravensbourne College of Art and since graduating has worked as a writer

and photographer on a number of magazines including House and Garden, World of Interiors and Vogue.

He is also the author of several books.

 

Country Homes 

This beautiful body of work includes intimate photographs of some of Britain’s best-known Country Houses and their interiors.

The result is an exquisite glimpse into a world rarely revealed, of the beautiful homes of the sometimes almost mythical,

British upper echelons of society, deeply steeped in tradition, class and history.

Undeniably beautiful, grand and undeniably British.

 

These photographs are available to our largest Giant size, 60×40″ as beautiful C-type prints.

(also available as signed limited edition prints – contact us for details).
