This vividly-illustrated guide contains images of one of Whitehall’s best-kept secrets -- the famous ceiling painting by Peter Paul Rubens. This elegant building has gone through many changes: discover the stories of the excesses and extravagances of the Stuart era, the wild masques and sumptuous receptions, and the drama of the bleak winter’s day when King Charles I was executed here in 1649. Paperback, 56 pages, 23.5 x 18cm.
