He depicted all the details of jewelry and costume of his models meticulously. His works were sparkling with gold, silver and brightly painted precious stones. In one miniature of Queen Elizabeth in her coronation robes, Hilliard set a diamond in the painting. The aim of this paper is to analyze Hilliard's innovative technique through his treatise of the Arte of Limning. In his treatise Hilliard briefly described how to paint precious stones with varnish mixed with appropriate pigments. He argued that portrait miniatures were special paintings and rules of perspective and heavy shadows could not be applied. He seems to have thought portrait miniatures were equal to the works of goldsmith, because both were precious, suitable to adorn prayer books and viewed closely while held in hands. It can be considered that Hilliard employed his expertise, tools, material, and technique of goldsmith in the production of portrait miniatures as his signature or his hallmark.}, pages = {93--101}, title = {ヒリヤードのミニアチュール・ポートレート技法 : 宝石の描法と象嵌}, volume = {15}, year = {2013} }
