An introduction and a glossary of terms accompany the richly illustrated entries, with detailed photographs of painted scenes, patterns of gilding and information on provenance, artists, measurements and distinguishing marks.Joanna Gwilt is Assistant Curator of Works of Art at the Royal Collection.
