"Knight with a Dog" by Johann Till the Younger
Status: Public Domain

I wonder what the story to this one is. What I can make out is a (young looking) knight drawing his sword from a hiding spot, and a person towards the top left.

Rabbits & hares proliferated in European art from the 13th century, as luxury goods travelling along the Silk Route brought design ideas from Asia. A beautifully illustrated article by Marcela Marín on rabbits & hares in historic textiles: sartorbohemia.com/article/102/

Did you know that starting in the 1300s medical textbooks used a diagram of a wounded man as an index? diagrams were used in medical manuals for over 300 years.

Northumbrian cross is certified national treasure

A solid gold cross, lost around 1,200 years ago when was a cradle of Christianity in Britain, has now gone on show.

The 2.6cms cross, which is of national importance, has a runic inscription which translates as the name Eadruf or Eadwulf, who was almost certainly the owner.

I have a sketchbook that I use for copying Medieval art with a mix of Tarot archetypes. Years after starting it, I finally got around to a cover page with contact information--just in case I leave it somewhere in a senior moment!
