Description
The room takes it name from the painting of the racehorse, Whistlejacket, by George Stubbs visible in this image. Whistlejacket was bought by the Marquess of Rockingham in the mid 1750s. Rockingham invited Stubbs to his home at Wentworth Woodhouse in 1762 and the painting is a result of that visit. It is now housed at the National Gallery.
