Blair Castle, Perthshire, was transformed in the first half of the eighteenth century, employing the most fashionable craftsmen to create a Palladian mansion furnished with pieces by the leading English and Scottish cabinet makers.
The study day will be based in the Private Library of the castle, where it will be possible to scrutinise pieces and their associated documentation in some detail. Other furniture will be studied in situ. There will be an opportunity (weather permitting) to see over the extensive rococo gardens – the most northerly in Britain.
