Henry VIII by Ralph Sheldon, a Portrait Re-discovery by Dr Adam Busiakiewicz

Dr Adam Busiakiewicz is an art historian who has taken the Tudor world by storm in the past few weeks, thanks to his discovery of a portrait of King Henry VIII that was thought to be long lost! Like most big discoveries, it was hiding in plain sight all along! The piece was part of a 22 portrait set by Ralph Sheldon, and painted during the reign of Henry VIII’s daughter, Queen Elizabeth I. Adam joins me today to discuss how he found the portrait, details about its origins, details within the portrait itself and much more!
