This pioneering and unprecedented study shows how portraits of civic officials (mayors, aldremen, college and school masters and civic benefactors) articulated civic values in post-Reformation England. It also explores English portraiture, patrons and painters before the full reception of new-classical styles associated with the Renaissance.
