Art, heritage and the odd bit of law. Richard Harwood KC, barrister of 39 Essex Chambers and Clarissa Levi, Art & Heritage Counsel at Wedlake Bell LLP discuss challenges and successes in the heritage and art world with guests from across the sector.

We often talk of the historic interest in buildings, but what does that mean to the historian? How does art help understand our past? Richard Harwood KC and Clarissa Levi from BHL Art Group talk to Dr Elizabeth Norton, a historian specialising in the Queens of England and the Tudor period, and the author of a number of highly readable books, including ‘The Lives of Tudor Women’ and ‘The Temptation of Elizabeth Tudor’. We discuss walking the ground, Jane Seymour’s necklaces, what television dramas and films get right, and why archaeological consultants should be punching the air in delight.
