It is always satisfying when an historic item returns to its home after a long interval. The BBC News website recently reported the return to Oxburgh Hall in Norfolk of a tapestry from the house which was sold more than a century ago.
The tapestry depicts a scene from the story of Esther, which appears to have been a popular subject in the sixteenth century with patrons and artists.
The illustrated report can be viewed at Lost Tudor tapestry returned home to Oxburgh Hall after 100 years
