Tudor England

by Moira Hook, Arthur MacGregor

In chronological terms this booklet takes at its starting point the accession of Henry VII in 1485 and it concludes with the death of Queen Elizabeth I in 1603. This key chapter in the story of England is charted with special reference to the Museum's outstanding collections of decorative arts and antiquities -- the material expression of these historical developments. The text is supplemented with fifty-seven illustrations (fifty-four of them in colour) in a format that is as accessible as it is informative.
