Published to coincide with two major exhibitions at Compton Verney Art Gallery& Park, Warwickshire, this publication will address key works and themes from both exhibitions, exploring the subject of children in art through a series of essays written by the exhibition curators and external academics.

The 18th-century painter Johan Zoffany (1733-1810) was an astute observer of the many social circles in which he functioned as an artist. This catalogue investigates his sharp wit, shrewd political appraisal, and perceptive social commentary - all achieved while presenting his subjects as delightful and sophisticated members of polite society.
