The five hundred years of British art represented in the Tate's collection includes some of the most moving, memorable, and inspiring images produced in the Western tradition. One hundred of these images have been selected for this publication, and seen together they demonstrate the vitality and sheer quality of British art across the centuries. Works by the most famous artists are included, from Hilliard and Van Dyck to Hogarth, Constable, and Rosetti, and in the 20th century, Spencer, Bacon, Hockney, and Freud, as well as examples from leading contemporary artists including Chris Ofili and Gillian Wearing.
