my professor talked about thomas cromwell for ten minutes calling him thomas cranmer before someone corrected him and he said 'oh christ, all the thomases!'

#sooo true. too many thomases #he thinks it was due to the worship of thomas becket which is pretty ironic for those two haha #tudor history #he went on a long spiel about how brilliant cromwell was and I was sitting there thinking. hehe. I need to talk to you about wolf hall #he's going to have to ban me from his office hours lol #wolf hall

as some of you may have noticed i became very enamoured by the character of Thomas Cromwell in Wolf Hall, and the other day i was reading about the portrait of actual Thomas Cromwell by the painter Hans Holbein, and that of all the portraits he made, the one of Cromwell seemed the most mocking and unflattering. i felt compelled to create a more flattering image of him, and i spent the past four weeks or so doing just that :)
