Author Biography
Jemma Field is Associate Director of Research at the Yale Center for British Art -- .
Reviews'[...] this work would be an excellent resource for scholars and students of queenship and the Stuart era. In sum, this excellent work further develops the cultural examinations of Anna's life and offers yet more evidence that this queen who had long been relegated to the fringes of academic enquiry deserves greater investigation and appreciation.' European History Quarterly, Elena Woodacre -- .
