each year waddesdon mounts several exhibitions. subjects and themes of the exhibitions can be related to a theme celebrated across the collection or might issue from research and cataloguing projects and new acquisitions. as most of the exhibitions do not have a printed catalogue, the texts, labels and, in many cases, images of the exhibits are archived here. below is a list of exhibitions in previous years, arranged聽chronologically.聽
