In this online lecture Kate Heard, Senior Curator of Prints and Drawings, will share some of the research she undertook in preparation for the exhibition Holbein at the Tudor Court which ran at The King's Gallery, Buckingham Palace last year.
Looking at the lives of the men and women depicted in portraits by Hans Holbein the Younger, among them Thomas More and Anne Boleyn, Kate will shed a light on the artist and his work in Tudor England.
