In this fascinating talk, Dr Nicola Tallis will discuss her latest publication ‘All the Queen’s Jewels 1445 to 1548: Power, Majesty and Display’.

This event is the rescheduled talk that was cancelled on Sunday 11 December 2022. 

There are still a few tickets available for this event.

From Margaret of Anjou to Katherine Parr, the ten queen consorts of England from 1445 to 1548, played an essential role in royal life: they were wives, mothers, patrons, and intercessors. All the Queen’s Jewels uncovers the exciting history of the jewels and jewellery that the queens wore and their significance as an explicit and unmistakeable display of wealth, majesty and authority.

This talk is perfect for anyone interested in medieval and Tudor history, queenship and the history of material culture. There will be a question and answer session after the talk and a chance to get your book signed. Copies of Nicola’s books will be available to purchase.
