Strawberry Hill

This visit to Strawberry Hill with Dr Silvia Davoli, Research Curator will concentrate on spectacular objets d’art from The Schroder Collection in this special exhibition, Treasures from Faraway: Medieval and Renaissance Objects. These are displayed in Horace Walpole’s ‘state rooms’ - the magnificent Gallery, Round Drawing Room and Tribune which were designed for the display of his works of art.  Alongside, are old master paintings currently on loan from Dulwich Picture Gallery which, together with the ‘Treasures’, were an inspiration for Horace Walpole&#x27;s diverse collections which were dispersed in the nineteenth century.
