The Earl Marshal's Court Vanbrugh Exhibition Panels

Open Monday to Friday, 10.00am - 4.00pm

On display until the end of the 2026 - free to visit

Visitors are welcome to explore three specially created exhibition panels in the historic Earl Marshal's Court. A member of staff will be available at the reception desk to provide information and assistance.
Don't miss this opportunity to discover a different side of Sir John Vanbrugh's remarkable career. Displayed alongside Jonathan Richardson's portrait of Vanbrugh, in a room that remains largely unchanged since his lifetime, the panels explore his work as a herald and his role as Clarenceux King of Arms.
The exhibition also introduces the history and work of the College of Arms and examines the influence of heraldry on Vanbrugh's architectural designs, revealing how his official duties and creative vision were closely connected.
