An expansive exhibition catalogue tracing the cultural and political influence of three Hanoverian princesses: Caroline of Ansbach, Augusta of Saxe-Gotha, and Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, during the Enlightenment. Lavishly illustrated with portraits, botanical studies, and architectural drawings, the volume reveals how these women shaped science, art, and intellectual life in eighteenth-century Britain. Scholarly essays from leading historians and curators make this both a reference work and a visual treasure.
