Dr. Kathryn Davies ‘Artisan Art in Herefordshire: Insights into early modern, everyday life’
Nearly all houses in the late 16th. and early 17th. century had some form of painted decoration on their walls, usually in big bold designs and often in strikingly bright colours. Looking at these in conjunction with other aspects of early modern life, we can gain some insight into what mattered to the people who lived in these houses, what they wanted to show off to their neighbours and how they lived their everyday life.
Entry is free – retiring collection
