I'd like to align the elements of the PlotLegend in a single horizontal row beneath the TimelinePlot, as there is plenty of room for that (especially when I adjust the Size to be large). Instead the internal algorithms pack the PlotLegends into three rows in this case.

You can do this by Legendeding the plot itself and then using LegendLayout:



tlp = TimelinePlot[{<|{Entity["Person", "LeonardoDaVinci::47w36"] -> 
Interval[{"1452", "1521"}]}|>, <|{Entity["Person",
"CamilleCorot::vx57d"] ->
Interval[{"1796", "1875"}]}|>, <|{"Piet Mondrian" ->
Interval[{"1872", "1944"}]}|>, <|{"Thomas Gainsborough" ->
Interval[{"1727", "1788"}]}|>, <|{Entity["Person",
"JanDavidszDeHeem::2gt75"] ->
Interval[{"1606", "1684"}]}|>, <|{"Pablo Picasso" ->
Interval[{"1881", "1973"}]}|>, <|{"Hokusai" ->
Interval[{"1760", "1849"}]}|>},
PlotStyle -> {Red, Orange, Darker[Yellow], Green, Blue, Purple,
Black}, AspectRatio -> 1/2, PlotLayout -> "Packed",
Background -> LightGray, ImageSize -> 600, AxesOrigin -> Center]


Now we add our legend. Note the LegendLayout function:



Legended[tlp,
Placed[
LineLegend[{Red, Orange, Darker[Yellow], Green, Blue, Purple, Black},
{"Italian",
"French", "American", "British", "Flemish", "Spanish",
"Japanese"},
LabelStyle -> {16, Italic, FontFamily -> "Times"},
LegendLayout -> (Row[Row[#, Spacer[1]] & /@ #, Spacer[7]] &),
LegendMargins -> 0], Below]]


Resulting in:



enter image description here



I'm sure there's a more elegant way to do this than creating nested Rows, but I'm afraid I don't have the time to have a look.

    Just a slightly different take for readability avoiding Slot, using Riffle for the Spacers and constructing the graphics with centralized components (e.g. using With):

    , Curry[Riffle][{Spacer[2] (* after color *), Spacer[10] (* between labels *) }]

      $begingroup$
      My guess is the string version maintains consistency among other choices like "ReversedRow", etc. In addition, LegendLayout allows for an arbitrary function f and so parsing Row in this way would create ambiguity.

      Since LineLegend accepts a LabelStyle option, you could simplify things by using LineLegend[labels, LegendLayout -> {"Row", 1}, LabelStyle -> {16, Italic, FontFamily -> "Times"}] and dropping all of those Style/Text wrappers in the labels.

        Black}, AspectRatio -> 1/2, PlotLayout -> "Packed",
        Background -> LightGray, ImageSize -> 600, AxesOrigin -> Center]


        Now we add our legend. Note the LegendLayout function:



        Legended[tlp,
        Placed[
        LineLegend[{Red, Orange, Darker[Yellow], Green, Blue, Purple, Black},
        {"Italian",
        "French", "American", "British", "Flemish", "Spanish",
        "Japanese"},
        LabelStyle -> {16, Italic, FontFamily -> "Times"},
        LegendLayout -> (Row[Row[#, Spacer[1]] & /@ #, Spacer[7]] &),
        LegendMargins -> 0], Below]]


        Resulting in:



        enter image description here



        I'm sure there's a more elegant way to do this than creating nested Rows, but I'm afraid I don't have the time to have a look.

        You can do this by Legendeding the plot itself and then using LegendLayout:



        tlp = TimelinePlot[{<|{Entity["Person", "LeonardoDaVinci::47w36"] -> 
        Interval[{"1452", "1521"}]}|>, <|{Entity["Person",

        Interval[{"1796", "1875"}]}|>, <|{"Piet Mondrian" ->
        Interval[{"1872", "1944"}]}|>, <|{"Thomas Gainsborough" ->
        Interval[{"1727", "1788"}]}|>, <|{Entity["Person",
        "JanDavidszDeHeem::2gt75"] ->
        Interval[{"1606", "1684"}]}|>, <|{"Pablo Picasso" ->
        Interval[{"1881", "1973"}]}|>, <|{"Hokusai" ->

        PlotStyle -> {Red, Orange, Darker[Yellow], Green, Blue, Purple,
        Black}, AspectRatio -> 1/2, PlotLayout -> "Packed",
        Background -> LightGray, ImageSize -> 600, AxesOrigin -> Center]

              Aha, this is the real solution! I can't believe this is undocumented. I also have a hard time understanding why they used "Row" the string rather than Row the symbol...

              $begingroup$
              My guess is the string version maintains consistency among other choices like "ReversedRow", etc. In addition, LegendLayout allows for an arbitrary function f and so parsing Row in this way would create ambiguity.

              $begingroup$
              Since LineLegend accepts a LabelStyle option, you could simplify things by using LineLegend[labels, LegendLayout -> {"Row", 1}, LabelStyle -> {16, Italic, FontFamily -> "Times"}] and dropping all of those Style/Text wrappers in the labels.

            labels = {Text[

              Aha, this is the real solution! I can't believe this is undocumented. I also have a hard time understanding why they used "Row" the string rather than Row the symbol...

              My guess is the string version maintains consistency among other choices like "ReversedRow", etc. In addition, LegendLayout allows for an arbitrary function f and so parsing Row in this way would create ambiguity.

              Since LineLegend accepts a LabelStyle option, you could simplify things by using LineLegend[labels, LegendLayout -> {"Row", 1}, LabelStyle -> {16, Italic, FontFamily -> "Times"}] and dropping all of those Style/Text wrappers in the labels.
