Harewood House

A servant opens the front doors of Harewood House for you, and you are ushered through wide, elaborately decorated corridors until you eventually arrive in a large bedroom. A window gives you a wonderful view of the park. You unpack to select the clothes you shall wear to meet Viscount Lascelles.

"Well William, you're looking very smart. You shall accompany me to the views of my house that I wish you to paint - one of which shall include the park. Come along now, follow me - it's a bit of a walk, but you're used to that I trust. When we return, supper will be ready."
