About
King Charles I: The Rise and Fall of His Spectacular Art CollectionSpeaker: Anne Harbers
In just two decades in the 1600s, Charles I assembled a spectacular art collection of Titian, Holbein, Durer, Rubens and Van Dyck. Art was a currency into his personal Court. Following his trial and execution in 1649 by Oliver Cromwell’s Parliamentarians, these paintings played a role in the politics that followed. Recent art research reveals the role art played in funding the Civil war as well as paying off Royal debts. Tradies were paid in priceless paintings!
