 - The Quest for Albion

Title: The Quest for Albion
Description: Royal Collection Enterprises, 1998. Paperback. Pp: 128. British painting is one of the Royal Collection's greatest strengths. The paintings are dispersed throughout the royal residences, but to give a hint of the richness of the Royal Collection's holdings, 'The Quest for Albion' brings together forty-six works - many instantly recognisable, others less familiar - and places them firmly in the context of Britain's national heritage. The part played by successive monarchs - in particular George III, George IV and later Queen Victoria with the encouragement of Prince Albert - in the formation of a national school is further described in the highly topical introductory essay by Christopher Lloyd, Surveyor of The Queen's Pictures. ISBN: 9781902163147. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
