A strikingly modern portrait of Chatsworth, the grandest of English country houses No house embodies the spirit of one dynasty better than Chatsworth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet in an unspoilt Derbyshire valley, surrounded by wild moorland, and home to the Cavendish family for sixteen generations, this treasure house is filled with works of art and objects - from Nicolas Poussin's. The Arcadian Shepherds and Antonio Canova's Endymion to great contemporary paintings by Lucian Freud and David Hockney - which have all, in their time, represented the very best of the new. As Stoker Cavendish, the twelfth Duke of Devonshire, likes to point out: 'Everything was new once. Following the completion of a decade-long programme of renovations, the exterior of Chatsworth is gleaming, its stone fa ade newly cleaned and its window frames freshly gilded. Inside, through the inspired juxtaposition of old and modern, its rooms fizz with creative energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDelivery \u0026amp; pickup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Available from Whimsy and Wonder with New Zealand delivery or Christchurch pickup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43891416432676,"sku":"B9780241461914","price":99.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0771\/2253\/5460\/files\/penguin-random-house-chatsworth-arcadia-now-book.jpg?v=1785750791","url":"https:\/\/whimsyandwonder.co.nz\/products\/chatsworth-arcadia-now","provider":"Whimsy \u0026 Wonder","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
