There were very few architects, almost exclusively his collaborators and students, who escaped from the shadow of Inigo Jones, the great innovator. Among these were Isaac de Caus (c. 1590-c.1655), who, according to recent findings, designed Wilton House. The harmoniously proportioned fa�ade is broad and flanked by high corner pavilions, with a window decorated in venetian style accentuating the central section.
The construction was begun in 1632, and the building was renovated in 1647 after a fire.
