Blenheim Palace is set to host a captivating photography exhibition, "Life Through a Royal Lens," showcasing over 100 iconic images of the British Royal Family. Running from 12 July to 27 September, the exhibition will be held in the Long Library, the largest room in the UNESCO World Heritage Site, which will be transformed into a gallery.
The exhibition explores the Royal Family's enduring relationship with photography, featuring works by renowned photographers such as Cecil Beaton, Annie Leibovitz, and Rankin, alongside images captured by the royals themselves. Highlights include the last public photograph of Queen Elizabeth II and recent portraits of King Charles III and Queen Camilla, as well as the Prince and Princess of Wales with their children.

Visitors can also enjoy daily tours of the opulent State Rooms, led by costumed guides, providing insights into Blenheim Palace's 300-year history. The Green Drawing Room will feature a regal dining table setup, commemorating 130 years since the Prince and Princess of Wales visited the palace.
