Its overarching theme is Design Revolutionaries and will celebrate not only the creative genius of gardeners and garden designers from the past, especially Joseph Paxton who was once the estates gardener, but also the talent, ideas and conceptual thinking of todays generation of designers.
Chatsworth is home to the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, and has been passed down through 16 generations of the Cavendish family. It is a family home, a working farm and a living landscape.
The house is renowned for the quality of its art and landscape containing works of art that span 4,000 years, from ancient Roman and Egyptian sculpture, and masterpieces by Rembrandt, Reynolds and Veronese, to work by outstanding modern artists, including Lucian Freud, Edmund de Waal and David Nash.
Set in the heart of the Peak District, on the banks of the river Derwent, the gardens are famous for their rich history, historic and modern waterworks and sculptures. Design revolutionaries including Capability Brown and Joseph Paxton played a pivotal role in shaping the gardens as they are today.
