Step back into the 1700s and into the most important room in Britain: the country house dining room.
In this engaging talk, Dr. Amy Boyington pulls back the velvet curtains on the ‘theatre of the feast’ to reveal how the Georgian elite used architecture, art, and an almost religious devotion to excess to cement their social standing.
