General Subject/s? - Portraiture / History / Tudors / Jacobeans / 16th Century / 17th Century

Title? - Exactly what it says on the cover; a selection of portraits from the 16th and 17th centuries.

General Analysis? - Although very simplified, this book offers a collection of portraits seen in the National Gallery, and a little about them. As you can't take pictures inside the gallery, this book allows you to take them home. With commentary by experts on the portraits, and historians, it is really the first of its kind.

Recommend? – Yes, a great little guide to get you started.
