Touring exhibition: Princely Treasures: European Masterpieces 1600-1800 from the Victoria and Albert Museum
This exhibition is timed to coincide with the major redevelopment of the V&A's European 1600-1800 galleries and features approximately 80 highlights from the V&A's magnificent holdings of fine and decorative art. The exhibition showcases the variety and splendour of these collections through a series of themes, encapsulating important aspects of courtly life in Europe, including power, patronage, taste and fashion. It offers a unique opportunity to view these objects, some of which have never previously travelled outside the V&A, before they are redisplayed in the new suite of galleries from 2014.
