<br />
====Biographical Note====<br />
Son of [[family::Charles Boyle]], 2nd Earl of Burlington and 3rd Earl of Cork, from whom he inherited the titles and family estates in 1704. He was educated at home. In 1715 he was made [[occupation::Lord Treasurer]] of [[location::Ireland]] (a country he never visited, despite having large landholding there), and thereafter held various administrative offices until he resigned them all in 1733, after a disagreement with George II. He is remembered principally for his interest in architecture, and as a patron of the arts; he designed, and built, numerous houses and gardens, and was a leading exponent of Palladianism in England. He was also a keen musician and supporter of composers and concerts, and had collections of paintings and sculpture. He became a Fellow of the [[organisations::Royal Society]] in 1722, and of the [[organisations::Society of Antiquaries]] in 1724.<br />
<br />
====Books====<br />
Boyle also assembled a significant library, noted particularly for its comprehensive coverage of [[subject::architecture]]. This was completed by an outstanding collection of architectural drawings. He was a major literary patron, and particularly friendly with [[associates::Alexander Pope]], whose 1731 poem ''Epistle to Burlington'' testifies to that. His ''ODNB'' entry notes that he regularly subscribed to forthcoming books, sometimes for multiple copies, across a range of subjects. he used an engraved armorial bookplate, in two sizes, dated 1704 (Franks *53/*62). His youngest daughter [[family::Charlotte Cavendish|Charlotte]], who married [[associates::William Cavendish]], 4th Duke of Devonshire, was his main heir and many of his collections were absorbed by the Devonshire library at [[location::Chatsworth]], where much remains today, though some of the architectural drawings were given to the [[organisations::Royal Institution of British Architects]] in 1894.<br />
