Lutyens And Hudson: Huddy And Ned

08 May 2025

Description

Send us a textSir Edwin (Ned) Lutyens’s old friend Edward Hudson founded Country Life in 1897.  A London printer, he was not a countryman, but commissioned three country houses as well as the Country Life office in Covent Garden.  Convinced of Lutyens’s genius, he also ‘boomed’ him through the magazine and lost no opportunity to promote his career.Nobody could be better placed to discuss this extraordinary creative partnership than Clive and John, both of whom are closely associated with the magazine that is Hudson’s legacy.Although not outwardly charismatic, Huddy — as Lutyens called him — had one grande if not wholly required amour.  This was for the fiery Portuguese cellist Guilhermina Suggia, who played to his guests.  Perhaps there were hidden depths.
