One for you @PStiffell and @NPGLondon. Sold as a portrait of Elizabeth of York at Christie's 1934. Definitely based on NPG 6453. 😍 #Tudors #History #Art #Horenbout #QueenMary #TudorTuesday

A bit of an unusual ask for me, but I need some help for a former student! If anyone attended UBC or McGill recently, could you send me a message? I've got a student with some particular questions about campus life and I'd really appreciate any insights you have. Thank you!

It was fun to help in the making of this, the BBC version of Augustin Viatte’s beautiful French language film of my friends and colleagues George, Norbert and Satoshi’s phenomenal discovery of 57 of Mary Stuart’s enciphered letters.
🔍 Three amateur codebreakers cracked a collection of encrypted letters – only to discover they were written by Mary, Queen of Scots herself! Watch The Secret Letters of Mary Queen of Scots tonight at 9pm on @BBCScotland and on @BBCiPlayer. ℹ️ https://t.co/SOmQ10vXR4
