If you were to recreate an Egyptian painting or an illuminated manuscript, what colors would you choose? Here are our insights on the 19th-century replicas we've been looking into. Have a look: it is more nuanced than you might think! mdpi.com/2908008 via @Heritage_MDPI

🖼️We are delighted to welcome Tea Ghigo as our new lecturer in History of Art, Materials and Technology! Fact: although Tea was born in Italy, an ethnicity test showed she's actually more French than Italian! Read her profile: ucl.ac.uk/art-history/ne… @TeaGhigo

Guys. Guys. I have just moved in to my very own office. Like, just me and all my books. I suddenly don't know what to do! Do I just sit down and work like this is normal?!

Quick perspective on how long Ancient Egyptian history was: Cleopatra lived closer to the iPhone than to the Great Pyramid of Giza.

@AshmoleanMuseum Exciting news! This and other watercolours are now the focus of a major research project at the Ashmolean: ashmolean.org/ruskins-painti… Soon we’ll share with the public all the secrets about the materials Ruskin used!

Here, John Ruskin has captured the apse of Pisa's cathedral. In 1873, he said this building that ‘no architecture on this grand scale, so delicately skilful in execution, or so daintily disposed in proportion, exists elsewhere in the world’.

1/ #Krasis12 week three kicks off in the galleries with the overarching question: what belongs here? Historian Elena Porter is going to be unpicking issues around why we cling to some things but are happy to let others go.

Thousands of sea snails had to be sacrificed to dye the garments of the aristocrats. That’s why this pigment was (and is) so expensive. Animalists would be mad at Phoenicians!

I had a blast as a panelist of this colourful event! If you are a curious mind, have a look at how we address the question “Do we all see colour the same” from 3 very different angles! The world is complex. Multidisciplinarity is a must.

Loved hosting this livestream with @OxfordUNIQ as part of #UNIQ2021 - 'do we see colour the same?' Learn how the hexadecimal system works, how our perception of colours has changed throughout history, and some fantastic facts about animals - enjoy :) youtube.com/watch?v=KjtkrQ…
