St. Thomas More's Family Portrait

Check this out. It is a beautiful multi-media exploration of the the 1593 painting (based upon Hans Holbein's 1520's sketch) of St. Thomas More and his extended family.

You can zoom in to see every detail, read bios of each family member and learn about the clothing, architecture, furniture, garden, and books that are portrayed in the painting. Thomas More fans like myself and history buffs in general will love it.

It is provided by the amazing Victoria and Albert museum in London. The V & A website has a dazzling collection of "micro-sites" such as the At Home in Rennaisance Italy microsite.
