Aldous Bertram is a Charleston-based interior designer and artist known for his richly layered, historically informed watercolors. Raised in a Queen Anne country house in the village of Linton, Cambridgeshire, and later educated at Cambridge—where he earned a PhD in 18th-century gardens and architecture—he brings a rare depth of architectural literacy to his work. This exclusive collection for Wentworth translates some of Europe’s most remarkable interiors and sculptural details into luminous, meticulously rendered studies, capturing the neoclassical whimsy, saturated color, and collected spirit that define his artistic hand.

Jason with the Golden Fleece depicts Thorvaldsen’s marble statue of 1803, a defining work in the early development of his neoclassical style. Celebrated for its poised contrapposto, anatomical refinement, and quiet heroic presence, the sculpture reflects the artist’s deep engagement with classical ideals. Bertram’s watercolor captures its purity, balance, and mythic gravity, offering a sensitive and atmospheric study of this iconic figure.
