The first comprehensive survey of England's unique contribution to the

under strict laboratory conditions in the Conservation Department of
the Victoria and Albert Museum, the surviving English portrait
miniatures painted between c. 1525 and c. 1620. Accompanying this with
a rigorous study of the available documentary evidence, he has been
able to re-assess the work of Nicholas Hilliard, publish for the first
