There is usually a running theme within issues of the Antiquary, even if it is not intentional – but in this issue, it is at first difficult to find one. We begin this disparate offering by examining an example of Netherlandish panel painting, Rogier van der Weyden’s Seven Sacraments altarpiece in Antwerp, focusing particularly on the carefully worked-out iconography of the piece and how it functions theologically and visually. From medieval doctrine and painting, we turn to something a little more light-hearted, as we trace the history of the English love affair with tea – from its beginnings as a foreign curiosity to its entrenchment as part of the national character. Ah, I’ve found the missing theme, there usually is one! In the last article, we introduce you to John Bull and explore how, for a brief period in English history, a comic character invented by a Scotsman came to be used as a way of expressing the English character.
