Turner Prize winner Richard Wright has started on a new artwork for the Queen’s House. Amazingly, this will be the first time an artist has worked on the ceiling of the Great Hall since Orazio Gentileschi created a series of nine paintings in 1639. Richard’s beautiful and complex installation, inspired by the Tulip Stairs, will be on view to visitors when the House re-opens in July this year.

Visitors to the re-opened house will also be able to see Orazio Gentileschi’s Joseph and Potiphar’s Wife displayed in the iconic building for the first time since 1650.
