Join the next installment of the History of Art Research Seminar Series, chaired by Professor Heather Pulliam, as they explore the fascinating topic of textile curtains in medieval manuscripts. This lecture, presented by doctoral candidate Sommer Hallquist from the University of Cambridge, will delve into the role of these curtains in the reading process of medieval manuscripts. By raising the curtains, the viewer would reveal painted images, creating an interactive and tactile experience. This component of medieval manuscripts is often overlooked, but it provides valuable insights into the book-use and image-viewing processes of the time. Sommer Hallquist will share her research findings from St. John's College, Cambridge, specifically focusing on the SJCC manuscript K.21 from the thirteenth century. She will discuss critical issues in dating the placement of these textile materials and explore the connection between revealing an image and the concept of revelation. This seminar promises to shed light on a lesser-known aspect of medieval manuscripts and their significance. Don't miss out on this enlightening lecture and the opportunity to attend in person or online. Following the lecture, there will be a drinks reception in the Higgitt Gallery. For more details on how to access the lecture and to secure your ticket, please book in advance.

The view is good and the interior is not allowed to take pictures. The ticket is accompanied by a Chinese explanation, and the explanation is also very interesting, mainly used by the Scottish royal family between King David in Scotland in the 12th century and James VI in the 17th century, and the room where Mary and her husband Darnley were assassinated in Scotland.
