Clearly ecstatic about a) Medieval villages and b) @chalkefestival.bsky.social ! I’ll be giving a talk on Tuesday 24 June at 20:30 on The Crown of Thorns - a curiously elusive image in early Christian art and not at all what you expect…I can’t wait to see you there!

What can we learn from a 4th-century sarcophagus? What are the images trying to tell us? A good place to start is to just observe. Read my latest article with @bloomsburyacad.bsky.social using case studies from my new book, The Crown of Thorns!
