Description
In this episode, I am joined by art historians Mell Taylor and Dr. Emma Cahill to discuss symbolism in portraiture. We cover a vast range of topics and portraits, including the one that used to be called Katherine of Aragon, which is now proposed to be Mary Tudor (sister of Henry VIII) - find out why it cannot be Mary!
We also talk about exotic animals in portraiture like unicorns, monkeys, dragons, guinea pigs and so much more!
