The Royal Collection, held at Windsor Castle, Buckingham Palace,
and Holyroodhouse, Edinburgh, has been shaped by the personal
tastes of kings and queens for more than five hundred years. The
Collection s exquisite natural history artworks in Amazing Rare
Things is supplemented by an introduction and commentary from Sir
David Attenborough. This exploration of the natural world from the
late fifteenth century to the early eighteenth century represents a
period when European knowledge of the world was transformed by
voyages of discovery to the farthest reaches of Africa, Asia,
America, and beyond. Included are works by Leonardo da Vinci and
other foremost artists and collectors of their time who embraced
the natural riches of their ever-expanding world and whose legacies
help us better understand today our continuing relationship with
the natural world."
