Exhibition - 'Town & Country: A Journey Through the Seasons'

Mottisfont begins its 2026 exhibition season with a show that reflects the idiosyncratic beauty of Britain’s seasons as they transform our landscapes and townscapes, seen through the eyes of three contemporary artists.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Over 60 pieces are on display, in watercolour and oil, from berry-laden field hedgerows, snow-covered fields and blossom-covered trees to games of village cricket in the heat of summer and the vivid greens of tree canopies brightening London’s squares and waterways.
