Overview

Explore how costume and portraiture intertwine to shape identity across 600 years of art. Using works from various museums and galleries, this richly illustrated course reveals the meanings behind damasks, satins and velvets of Tudor and Stuart splendour, as well as the radical simplicity of later styles, uncovering how clothing reflects status, ideology, and self-presentation.
