Chatsworth Through Time, Episode Two: The Powerhouse

Explore Five Hundred Years of Art and Architecture at a Historic Estate

Chatsworth Through Time, produced in partnership with the Duke of Devonshire and the Chatsworth House Trust, explores the history, architecture, landscape, and collections of Chatsworth House. Beginning in the Tudor Period and progressing through five hundred years of history all the way to the 21st century, this series explores the world of Chatsworth, with its own curators, Alice Martin, Head of the Devonshire Collection, and Dr. Alex Hodby, Senior Curator of Programme, as our guides.

Episode Two: The Powerhouse examines the story of the 1st Earl, who became the 1st Duke of Devonshire, and his extensive renovations of the Chatsworth estate that displayed the great power and wealth of the English Baroque period. The locations and artifacts examined in this segment include the Great Chamber, the stunning frescoes of the Painted Hall, the architectural renovations that established much of the facades still visible at Chatsworth today, as well as a period painting by Siberechts and the grand water feature known as the Cascade.
