Of course not! I don't expect to get over to see the exhibition in person, so I am thrilled to read and look via articles and blogs like Little Augury. Also, another favorite blog, Ben Pentreath's Inspiration, has a first-hand account of Ben's and his husband Charlie's visit to Chatsworth: http://www.pentreath-hall.com/inspiration/2017/03/22/chatsworth/<br />Also congratulations on your book, Gaye!

Multiplying that tally by the information of its provenance would represent a research project beyond any one institution's capability. That they commited to assembling even this exhibition, therefore, constitutes a stunning contribution to history, and on that basis alone it truly ought not to be missed.Laurenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17972899387484460347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3498357134928699381.post-43002571402979908452017-03-29T14:51:19.464-04:002017-03-29T14:51:19.464-04:00What a story!

His wife's wedding dress was gifted by the Duchess and is housed in their textile collection, thus adding fuel to the rumour. I need to go see it at some point!
