A bit more on my #history & specifically #EnglishCivilWar focus (if anyone's interested!).
My great love is #17thCentury British #portraiture, but in particular #art from 1640s. I am biographer for William Dobson, court painter for #KingCharlesI, and am also building a (currently private, but watch this space..) database of portraits from the period. The plan is to research & reunite unidentified or lost names with their portraits & help ECW #historians add faces to their subjects. 😎
