杰弗里·怀亚特维尔爵士
以哥特风改建温莎城堡
杰弗里·怀亚特维尔爵士(皇家艺术学院院士)是一位英国建筑师和园林设计师。他出生于一个著名的建筑师世家,原名杰弗里·怀亚特。1824年,乔治四世国王允许他将姓氏改为怀亚特维尔(常被误拼为Wyattville)。他主要因对查茨沃斯庄园和温莎城堡进行的改建与扩建而闻名。 杰弗里于1766年8月3日出生在特伦特河畔伯顿,是约瑟夫(1739–1785)和默蒂拉·怀亚特的第一个存活下来的孩子,默蒂拉在杰弗里出生后不久去世。他在特伦特河畔伯顿的文法学校接受教育。父亲去世后不久,怀亚特维尔开始在他叔叔塞缪尔·怀亚特的办公室接受建筑培训。他一直跟随塞缪尔直到1792年,当时他从米德兰兹搬到了伦敦女王安妮街的叔叔詹姆斯·怀亚特的办公室。后来,在1813年叔叔詹姆斯去世后,他完成了赫特福德郡的哥特式阿什里奇庄园。从1786年到1822年,怀亚特维尔每年都向皇家艺术学院提交设计作品,此后频率降低。没有证据表明怀亚特维尔曾将出国旅行作为其教育的一部分,这可能是因为拿破仑战争。怀亚特维尔于1822年11月4日当选为皇家艺术学院的副院士,随后于1824年2月10日当选为皇家艺术学院的皇家院士,他的文凭作品是一幅未实施的布罗克斯比大厅设计的图纸。 His largest commission, the remodelling of Windsor Castle begun in 1824, when Parliament voted £300,000 for the purpose. The eventual cost was over £1,000,000 (a quarter of which covered furnishing). A competition was held between four invited architects, Wyatville, Robert Smirke, John Nash and John Soane, the architects (with the exception of Soane who withdrew from the competition) submitted their designs, in June Wyatville was announced as the winner. The foundation stone was laid on 12 August 1824 by King George IV at what would become the George IV gateway. Wyatville took up residence in the Winchester Tower in the castle in 1824 and would use it for the rest of his life. Eventually the Upper Ward of the Castle would be reconstructed. It was while at Windsor that he designed Golden Grove, Llandeilo, Carmarthenshire for the 1st Earl Cawdor, completed 1834, and its 'sister house' Lilleshall Hall in Shropshire for the 1st Duke of Sutherland, completed 1829. 他于1828年被乔治四世封为爵士。他于2月18日去世,随后于1840年2月25日安葬于温莎城堡的圣乔治礼拜堂。
