British Galleries



The British miniature portraits are split into three galleries.

British 1 Gallery - This includes most better known artists and interesting sitters, such as these portraits by Sophia Smith, Jeremiah Meyer, and Peter Stroehling. Around 100 of these British miniatures are available to view at British 1

British 2 Gallery - This includes the balance of British 18C and 19C miniatures and about 100 miniatures can be viewed at British 2

British 20C Gallery - This covers the late 19C and early 20C miniatures, with the cut-off being largely on stylistic grounds.

It includes the this portrait of Edward VII by Ernest Rinzi. Approaching 100 portraits can be seen at British 20C
