  • Holbein’s The Ambassadors - A Tudor Masterpiece
    Hans Holbein’s Tudor masterpiece known as the Ambassadors was painted in 1533, the year when Henry VIII changed the course of history. Religious turmoil sweeps through Europe and Anne Boleyn is Queen of England.     Two Ambassadors choose to capture this pivotal moment of religious and political upheaval, but who were they and what did they want this painting to convey?   In today’s episode we join Tracy Borman, Chief Historian, as she explores the painting known as The Ambassadors, by Hans Holbein.   You can view The Ambassadors in high resolution here.  Thank you to the National Gallery for letting us record in front of the painting.

  • LGBTQ+ History – Queer Possibilities at Our Palaces
    LGBTQ+ people have always existed in the history of our palaces, yet the stories of this community have often been obscured or misunderstood.   When we explore queer histories, we gain a much fuller picture of societies in the past, from when our palaces were first built, right on through to their more recent history.     In this week’s episode, Curator Matthew Storey is joined by Assistant Research Curator Holly Marsden, and Dr Kit Heyam, to discuss some queer stories connected to our palaces, and how best to understand them in their historic context.    A transcript of this episode is available on the Historic Royal Palaces website.    Explore more LGBTQ+ histories from our palaces on our website.  Read Matthew’s article about Kathleen Woodhouse.   Read Molly McClain's article on Stuart women.  Find Kit Heyam’s books on their website.   In this episode we use a range of different gender pronouns to discuss historical people, including those used in the original sources and those used by historians today.  Content warnings:   Homophobia, including the murder of queer people  Transphobia   Non-consensual medical examination   Suicide

  • The Medieval Jewish community at the Tower of London
    The history of the Jewish community in Medieval England is complex and fascinating, but it hasn’t received as much attention as it deserves when it comes to our understanding of the Tower of London.  In this bonus episode as part of our mini-series, curator Charles Farris is joined by Dr Rory MacLellan and Professor Miri Rubin to discuss how the Jewish community interacted with the Crown and the Tower of London during the Middle Ages.   This episode is a re-release of the episode on the same topic from 2023, to add context to our reopening of the Medieval Palace.  Read more about the Jewish community and the Tower of London.
