Godrey Kneller
British Baroque: Power and Illusion
Friday 8 October

British society, paintings in the style of baroque were a way of expressing one’s status and power.

From the Restoration of Charles II in 1660 to the death of Queen Anne in 1714, a time of significant change for Britain, we will look at the splendour of the art of artists such as Peter Lely, Godfrey Kneller and James Thornhill.
The cost is £22.00. To make further enquiries and to book please telephone 01202 888992 and speak to Sarah or Kim.
