Showcasing recently acquired works of art, including rarely seen works by Sir Winston Churchill and family portraits from the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries.

As part of our goal to re-acquire key works from the Palace’s lost collections, we have recently acquired 15 paintings and 40 miniatures from the Estate of Viscount Churchill, and these will be exhibited for the first time in the Long Library.

Winston Spencer Churchill, born at Blenheim Palace in 1874, was a lover of art and talented artist, spending much time painting the vistas of the Palace.
