The Real Tudors

Take a closer look at the portraits of the Tudor monarchs and find out what lies beneath the surface by downloading The Real Tudors interactive audio-visual trail.

The faces of the Tudor monarchs are some of the most familiar from British history. They have been reproduced and re-imagined for over 500 years.

For the first time, new research into the way in which these images were produced allows us to rediscover how the Tudors would have been seen in their own time.
