About Country Life

Country Life has published since 1897 and is best known for its property pages and for the portrait of a young woman that has appeared near the front of nearly every issue for over a century. It is published weekly and its archive is used by architectural historians, since its photographs record the interiors of many country houses that have since been altered or demolished.
