Two hundred years and 6000 miles apart. No obvious similarities, as such, but the shape of that wave struck a wee chord. *** Rembrandt, ‘The Storm on the Sea of Galilee’ (1633) Hokusai, ‘The Great Wave off Kanagawa’ (1831)

Emily Dickinson was born #OTD 1830. An original and remarkably prolific poet, her words have endured for generations as many have found connections with death, hope, grief, nature and joy through them. #WomensHistory

A rather splendid shot of the discreet little tomb of #HenryVIII's 4th wife, Anne of Cleves, taken today in @wabbey by my better half; most people pass it without even realising it's there, this despite her being the only one of 'The Six Wives' accorded such an honour #Tudors

Trying to catch up on reading! Currently working on Liberty's Chain: Slavery, Abolition, and the Jay Family of New York by David Gellman. Very interesting, especially since I know little about John Jay. @CornellPress
