Historical novel set in the reign of Elizabeth 1st. The main character seeks to be a portrait painter and aims to be accepted at court. His liaison with a Courtesan gain him many contacts within the court of Elizabeth yet his unfortunate ability to open his mouth and offend people saying the wrong things at the wrong time do him few favours.

A compelling tale for lovers of art and history. (
