The museum’s Director demonstrates the wide range of George IV’s cultural; patronage – and the legacy he left us.
This engaging and entertaining lecture series looks not just at the inspired and salacious art of late Georgian satirist James Gillray, but also at the Britain in which he lived. Some of the subjects covered will range from Gillray and George IV to Georgian fashion and the rise of British Gin!
Each lecture starts at 5pm in the Landscape Studio and costs £20 (aside from the last lecture, which costs £30). If you book for all 10 you qualify for a discount. The cost for all 10 lectures together is £180.
These lectures are fundraising events for Gainsborough’s House.
