CORPORATE BENEFACTORS
A Special Place
Set in tranquil parkland with panoramic views over London, brewing magnate, Edward Cecil Guinness, first Earl of Iveagh, bought Kenwood House in 1927, and bequeathed it to the nation in 1929. The house boasts sumptuous interiors and one of the greatest art collections in London with masterpieces of international importance by many famous artists including Rembrandt, Turner, Reynolds, Gainsborough and Vermeer. It houses the Suffolk Collection, with its magnificent full-length Jacobean portraits and stunning costume details.
Outside, in parkland influenced by the great English landscape gardener, Humphry Repton, there are lakeside walks and meandering woodland paths to explore and enjoy.
