In this episode we're back at the Queen's Gallery, Buckingham Palace, immersing ourselves in the life and works of Hans Holbein the Younger, via the excellent Royal Collection Trust exhibition: "Holbein at the Tudor Court".

Widely thought to be one of the greatest portraitists of the 16th century, Holbein didn't restrict himself to just one field of expertise, but worked across many art forms excelling in pretty much all of them! Here we talk with Kate Heard, Senior Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Royal Collection Trust, and consider Holbein and the sensory.
