By looking closely at paintings we can often discover a lot more than meets the eye. Artists had the ability to tell a story without using words. Instead they use hidden symbols and clues to pass on a message to the viewer. 

See what clues you can find in some of the paintings from the Northern Renaissance: Dürer to Holbein exhibition by clicking the Seeing the Story interactive. Find our more about this work.
