As the summer draws to a close, so too does the remarkable Towering Dreams: Extraordinary Architectural Drawings exhibition at Compton Verney – and we at SE-Solicitors are delighted to have supported it as proud sponsors. With the exhibition concluding on 31st August, we encourage all those who have not yet visited to take advantage of the final weeks to experience this inspiring display of artistic and architectural excellence.
A Cultural Gem in the Heart of the Countryside
Compton Verney is an award-winning art gallery set within a stunning Georgian mansion, surrounded by 120 acres of beautifully landscaped parkland. Known for its diverse exhibitions and family-friendly activities, it’s a cultural gem that offers something for everyone. This year, the gallery was also named a finalist for the Art Fund Museum of the Year 2025, a recognition that highlights its impactful and inclusive work during their 20th anniversary year.
The Towering Dreams: Extraordinary Architectural Drawings exhibition brings together a vast collection of architectural drawings, many drawn from the collection of the Sir John Soane’s Museum. These artworks provide a fascinating glimpse into the imaginative designs and bold ideas that inspired architects in the 18th and early 19th centuries. Expect everything from grand buildings inspired by celestial constellations to dog kennels modeled after ancient Greek temples – a true testament to the limitless creativity of the era.
Patrick Mulcare, Managing Director at SE-Solicitors comments:

At SE-Solicitors, we are deeply committed to our local community and enriching cultural experiences, and we’re proud to help showcase Sir John Soane’s extraordinary drawings at Compton Verney. Witnessing how powerfully the exhibition has resonated with visitors has been incredibly rewarding, and we’re delighted to have played a part in such an inspiring celebration of art and heritage.”
