As part of HistFest 2022, Joanne Paul took part in a Q&A about ‘The House of Dudley’ with Dr Wanda Wyporska. In ‘Not Just The Tudors’ podcast, Suzannah Lipscomb visited the Holburne Museum to discuss the exhibition with the curator Monserrat Pis Marcos. The Lady Jayne/Streatham portrait was included in the podcast.

In May, Joanne Paul had articles in both BBC History Magazine (‘The Family Behind the Tudors’) and History Today (‘The Black Legend of the House of Dudley’). Jane got a mention in both articles. Lee Porritt and I posted the first article in our ‘Investigating Jane’ series, ‘Part One: The Wedding’. Jane also briefly featured in Mary I in Writing: Letters, Literature, and Representation edited by Valerie Schutte and Jessica S Hower.

On the 21st of May, ‘The Tudors: Passion, Power and Politics’ exhibition moved to Liverpool and the Lady Jayne/Streatham portrait was on display at the Walker Gallery until 29th August. I updated ‘A look at how the Streatham portrait has been displayed over the years’.
