29.5 The Noble Art (Bonus Ep)
Manage episode 296642549 series 2617209
A picture may be worth a thousand words, but how much is it worth if it hangs in Bridgerton House?
Kate spoke with Art Historian, writer and youtuber Nancy Langham-Hooper about portraits, statuary, and a surprising amount of subtext - if you know how to read a room.
Featuring:
Hierarchies of art
18th Century Instagram filters
Decorating tips
Exhibitions and exhibitionism
Wild, wild horses
Wet portraits in the rain
Books and other media we discuss:
This episode is brought to you by Kensington’s newest release from Minerva Spencer, Outrageous. Outrageous is the second book in Minerva’s Rebels of the Ton series about a younger generation of London aristocracy who are breaking the rules of the Regency to follow their dreams and forge their own paths. In Outrageous, readers meet Eva de Courtney, a young woman with a plan to protect her brother by kidnapping the notorious Godric Fleming. But things go awry after she gets him in her carriage and it becomes unclear who is kidnapping whom - and where this carriage ride might end. Booklist called Minerva’s books an irresistible cocktail of smart characterisation, sophisticated sensuality, and sharp wit, and frankly, we agree. We are powerless against a trope-reversal and we stan a forward-thinking heroine. You can find Outrageous and the other books in the Rebels of the Ton series by Minerva Spencer anywhere books are found. Find out more on minervaspencer.com
You can find out more about Nancy via her website: www.nancylanghamhooper.com or follow her YouTube channel: The Art Doctor where she regularly posts pieces of art to aid you in a variety of maladies.
