His approach was much more schematic than that of his student, Isaac Oliver, summing up in a marvellous economy of lines the distinguishing facial features. In Hilliard’s work the details of the costume were almost as important as the facial likeness, as in this handsome portrait of an unknown young man, whose bejewelled bonnet with its feathery aigrette, intricate ruff and splendid doublet indicate his high status.","physicalDescription":"Round portrait miniature with an original turned ivory frame depicting an unknown youth in yellow with a bonnet and feather, watercolour on vellum.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Hilliard","id":"A8506"},"association":{"text":"artist","id":"AAT25103"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"watercolour","id":"AAT15045"},{"text":"vellum","id":"AAT11852"}],"techniques":[{"text":"painting","id":"x30598"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Watercolour on vellum","categories":[{"text":"Paintings","id":"THES48917"},{"text":"Portraits","id":"THES48906"}],"styles":[],"collectionCode":{"text":"PDP","id":"THES48595"},"images":["2019LY9672","2019LY2886","2016JA2666","2006AG3039","2006AH2106","2006AP6270","2017JU0470"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"LVLF","id":"THES49656"},"free":"","case":"RMC","shelf":"1","box":"A"}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"miniature","id":"AAT33936"}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""},{"apprise":"","note":""},{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"Britain","id":"x32019"},"association":{"text":"painted","id":"x30138"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"ca. 1585-1590","earliest":"1580-01-01","latest":"1590-12-31"},"association":{"text":"painted","id":"x30138"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[{"object":{"text":"P.4:2-1974","id":"O1410229"},"association":""}],"creditLine":"","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Diameter","value":"66","unit":"mm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"case","note":""},{"dimension":"Depth","value":"8","unit":"mm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"case","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[],"objectHistory":"This is one of five miniatures acquired from the Radnor collection.
