Covering 500 years, 38 patrons and several continents, this course is an examination of audacious acts of patronage and how they resulted in some of the finest art collections in the world.
George III and Queen Charlotte of Great Britain (r. 1760–1820)
George III and his young bride Charlotte commissioned British-made decorative arts (including sophisticated clocks and barometers) for their new home Buckingham House as well as collecting or commissioning painters such as Ramsay, Gainsborough, Zoffany, and Benjamin West. The Royal Collection also comprised stunning Italian paintings and drawings, including works by Raphael, Zuccarelli and Annibale Carracci, and a very fine group of Canalettos.
