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 architectural details into luminous, meticulously detailed studies, capturing the neoclassical whimsy, saturated color, and collected spirit that define his artistic hand.

Statue of Dionysus captures a sculptural fragment from a Roman marble group dated to 160 AD, representing Dionysus alongside a Satyr. On view at the Altes Museum in Berlin, the work exemplifies the poise, narrative tension, and exquisite carving of classical antiquity. Bertram’s watercolor distills the figure’s youthful elegance and mythic presence, offering a study that is both archaeological in its precision and lyrical in its interpretation.
