* National Portrait Gallery unveils earliest known portrait of a guinea pig<\/a> – This painting will be on display in an upcoming exhibition that I’ll blog more about in the future.<\/p>\n

* Mary, Queen of Scots Manuscripts On Loan<\/a> – Nice overview of some of the manuscripts on loan from the British Library to the National Museums Scotland in Edinburgh.<\/p>\n

* Charles Brandon: Norfolk hawk death reveals ‘royal’ hunt<\/a> – A “rare” 16th Century “royal” silver vervel found in a Norfolk field has revealed the hunting habits of Charles Brandon, the first duke of Suffolk.<\/i><\/p>\n

* James IV: Renaissance Monarch<\/a> – An article in the newest issue of History Today<\/i> by Linda Porter. The rest of the article is pay-only, but I wanted to bring it to people’s attention in case it was of interest.

* Another History Extra podcast with Tudor history discussion<\/a>, this time on the Battle of Flodden which has its 500th anniversary next month.

I haven’t had time to fully explore the extras yet, but they look neat! If you’re not already a subscriber you can get a 30-day free trial.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
