During his reign, King Charles I (1600-1649) assembled one of
Europe's most extraordinary art collections. Indeed, by the time of
his death, it contained some 2,000 paintings and sculptures.
Charles I: King and Collector explores the origins of the
collection, the way it was assembled and what it came to represent.
Authoritative essays provide a revealing historical context for the
formation of the King's taste. They analyse key areas of the
collection, such as the Italian Renaissance, and how the paintings
that Charles collected influenced the contemporary artists he
commissioned. Following Charles's execution, his collection was
sold. This book, which accompanies the exhibition, reunites its
most important works in sumptuous detail. Featuring paintings by
such masters as Van Dyck, Rubens and Raphael, this striking
publication offers a unique insight into this fabled collection.
