In 2026, Knole is collaborating with artist Chinwe Russell to celebrate stories of incredible women from around the world. Chinwe’s series of portraits, ’20 Historical Women who Changed the World’, is a bold, colourful and historically inspired body of work which gives an insight into the lives and legacies of some remarkable women.
Paired with a carefully curated selection of Knole’s own portraiture, this exhibition will create playful links between the women who inspired her and the women who shaped the powerful estate at Knole. Chinwe is also producing a special commission featuring one of Knole’s most iconic women through her unique lens.
