Today, HENI Talks is presented by Catharine MacLeod, Curator of 17th-century Art, National Portrait Gallery.

Nicholas Hilliard’s miniature painting of Sir Kenelm Digby, Naval commander, diplomat and scientist, is a great example of how these miniature works of art, could be worn, carried in a pocket or kept for private display within the home.

HENI Talks in collaboration with @nationalportraitgallery discover portrait miniatures, one of the most intimate forms of art.

🎥 Presented by HENI Talks — films that bring art, design, and architecture to life.
