"Dyrham Park, the Seat of William Blathwayt" is an intricate engraving by Dutch artist Johannes Kip, which depicts the grand estate of Dyrham Park located in South Gloucestershire, England. This work is part of the Britannia Illustrata series, a collection of topographical illustrations that showcase the grandeur of English and Welsh estates at the turn of the 18th century. The engraving is notable for its detailed representation of the landscape, architecture, and formal gardens of the period, reflecting the status and wealth of the estate's owner, William Blathwayt, who was a prominent civil servant and politician during the reign of King William III and Queen Mary II.

Johannes Kip (1653–1722) was a highly skilled engraver and draftsman known for his contributions to the Britannia Illustrata, which he produced in collaboration with Leonard Knyff, a painter who provided the initial drawings for Kip to engrave. Kip's works are celebrated for their accuracy and the insight they provide into the English countryside during the late 17th and early 18th centuries.

Dyrham Park itself is a baroque country house set within a sprawling parkland, which was redesigned by Blathwayt when he acquired the estate in the late 17th century. The house and gardens were transformed according to the latest trends, influenced by Blathwayt's time in the Netherlands and his role as Secretary at War under King William III. The engraving by Kip is an important historical record of the estate's appearance during its early years under Blathwayt's ownership, capturing the formal garden layout, the ornate detailing of the house, and the surrounding countryside.

Today, the engraving is not only a piece of art but also a valuable document for historians and conservationists, providing insights into the landscape design and architecture of the period. Dyrham Park is currently managed by the National Trust and is open to the public, allowing visitors to appreciate both the historic estate and the artistic representation by Johannes Kip.
