An exhibition of illuminated manuscripts collected by kings and queens of England between the ninth and the sixteenth centuries. The BL's 'Royal' collection contains medieval and Renaissance manuscripts amassed over 700 years. Works on display include colourful histories and genealogies, bibles and psalters, scientific works and accounts of coronations. As well as being works of art in their own right, they give an indication of royal identity, moral and religious beliefs, learning and international politics. Highlights include the 'Book of Hours' made for Margaret Beauchamp, the grandmother of Henry VIII, maps of an itinerary from London to Apulia and to the Holy Land, and the 'Shrewsbury Book', presented to Margaret of Anjou on her marriage to Henry VI in 1445.
