Public observes analysis of Thomas More painting
A historically significant painting of Thomas More and his family is undergoing public scientific analysis at Nostell in West Yorkshire. The project, the first of its kind in the UK, involves macro X-ray fluorescence scanning to reveal hidden details and is being conducted over eight days in front of visitors. The painting is regarded as the most faithful, same-size replica of Holbein’s original work, which was destroyed in a fire, and depicts More with his family, pets, and symbolic objects, offering insight into Tudor-era portraiture.
