Last weekend I visited the Royal Academy exhibition, ‘Charles I: King and Collector.’
As well as some fabulous portraits of Charles I and Henrietta Maria, the exhibition also included some Holbein and Hilliard.
Particularly poignant were the miniature portraits of Henry and Charles Brandon (the children of Charles Brandon and Catherine Willoughby) by Holbein.
