Portrait Show Dates: 28 Jul 2025-25 Aug 2025

Marking the 400-year anniversary of King James’s death, this exhibition charts his remarkable reign through stories of power, plot and majesty. Son of Mary, Queen of Scots and successor to Elizabeth I, King James (1566–1625) was the first monarch to rule over Scotland, England, Ireland and Wales. Drawing on themes with contemporary relevance including national identity, queer history and spirituality, this is an enriching journey through the complex life of a king who changed the shape of the United Kingdom.
