Join us for this special talk as part of our Renaissance inspired Walker Art Party, led by Nicola Scott, Curator of Decorative Art.

Learn more about a star object of the Renaissance Galleries and find out how it was made. This rare home furnishing once graced the walls of a 16th-century palace. ‘Fortitude’ means courage in the face of adversity. This talk will explore the heroism of the people pictured. It will reveal the woven stories of some feisty female characters.
