A propos de cet article

Paperback. James VI & I, the only child of Mary, Queen of Scots, has often been overshadowed by the dramatic lives of his mother and son, Charles I. This book seeks to redress the balance by centering the first monarch to reign over both Scotland and England and uncovering the artistic treasures created during his extraordinary reign. The cultural riches of James's court are showcased, revealing his diverse roles as ruler, scholar, politician, father and patron of the arts. His court's passion for jewellery and fine clothes is illustrated in the vivid portraits and miniatures by John de Critz and Nicholas Hilliard just two of many artists and craftspeople who thrived in its artistic and intellectual climate. Five richly illustrated chapters demonstrate James's impact on early modern Britain, while reconsidering the reputation of a king traditionally presented as preferring hunting and drinking to the duties of daily governance. Packed with exquisite art works and sumptuous objects, this book brings James's court vividly to life. AUTHORS: Kate Anderson is Senior Curator of Portraiture at the National Galleries of Scotland. Liz Louis is Curator of Portraiture at the National Galleries of Scotland. Catriona Murray is Senior Lecturer in History of Art at Edinburgh College of Art, University of Edinburgh. Jemma Field is Associate Director of Research at the Yale Center for British Art. Anna Groundwater is Principal Curator of Renaissance and Early Modern History at the National Museum of Scotland.
