THE QUEEN'S PICTURES - By Oliver Millar - Hardback Book - ISBN: 0907486487 | |

| £15.00

| 52 colour and over 250 black and white plates. Oliver Millar, Surveyor of The Queen's Pictures, traces the growth of this outstanding collection from the Tudor period onwards, illustrating both its past and present riches over three hundred carefully chosen plates. Of all the great European royal collections of the past, that of the British royal family is the only one to retain it's identity and not to have been absorbed into a national collection. The pictures and the history of their acquisition provide a facinating insight into the personalities of British monarchs, their consorts and their children - reflecting their discernment, prejudice, their bad taste as well as their good, their friendships, diversions, loves idiosyncrasies and obsessions in an uniquely illuminating manner.
