Art & collections

At Wightwick Manor are four remarkable drawings of animals by Philip Webb, leading member of the Pre-Raphaelite circle and friend to William Morris. Lead Curator Jane Gallagher uncovers their story and the making of The Forest tapestry, now on show at Wightwick.

To celebrate Cliveden's outstanding new display of contemporary art, we're shedding light on the 19th-century sculpture collection in the gardens. Curator Oonagh Kennedy looks back on the 'new' art of Cliveden's past.

Every year we host special exhibitions and new displays in some of our most iconic buildings and outdoor spaces. Look out for Creatures and Creations at Waddesdon Manor and The Gruffalo and Friends at Mottisfont in our summer highlights.

Get connected to our places through our contemporary art exhibitions and events, in partnership with the Arts Council. Andrew Logan's The Art of Reflection has now opened at Buckland Abbey.

Our collections are constantly revitalised through new acquisitions. Most recently a masterpiece by Isack van Ostade has returned to Waddesdon Manor.

Each year we lend many items from our collections to external exhibitions. You may be surprised to find out where our objects go on show.
