A new installation in the Temple of the Four Winds by internationally-renowned artist, Es Devlin, presenting an innovative response to Sir John Vanbrugh’s vision. Designed by Vanbrugh in 1724, it was modelled in part on Palladio’s Villa Rotonda in Vincenza, Italy, and originally used as a place for refreshment and reading.
