    Join exhibition curator Anna Reynolds for this exciting, in conversation style event with historian, writer, and presenter Alice Loxton. Alice and Anna's discussion will examine the different ways in which image is depicted in the paintings, prints and drawings displayed in our exhibition, Style and Society: Dressing the Georgians at The Queen's Gallery, Buckingham Palace.
