Some Pre-Conditions

Very first thoughts....

OK, in terms of pre-conditions, I am dead set on:

1) A work of art I love
2) Something that is easily accessible: (on permanent, free display; close enough to London to be viewed with 1 or 2 days notice max.)
3) Published documentation available (this is NOT an original research project)

i.e. would have to be something out of this world for these conditions not to be met

I have a strong preference for:

1) Work with all/majority of documentation in English
2) Work relates in some way to an institution (e.g. gallery or museum, heritage site) that I would like to study or work with or for at some future point

i.e. not binding, but all works are subject to scrutiny via these terms

And favourite themes?

1) The Reformation of the Church
2) The Yorkist/Lancastrain/Tudor Royal Houses
3) 15thC AngloItalian links (or AngloFlemishItalian if that can be said to exist!)...
... in particular the Wool Trade
4) English Parish Church Fittings

This can and will change at any time!


OK, now for a "long list"..............................
