Anyone who thinks Shakespeare is boring apparently missed the greatest stage direction ever written:

I want that to be the final line of my biography.

Well, in all fairness, the Renaissance is an era…

The Catherine Palace (Russian: Екатерининский дворец) is one of my favorite two Romanov residences. The Alexander Palace is the other. The Catherine Palace is a Rococo palace located in the town of Tsarskoe Selo, built in early 18th-century. It was the summer residence of the Russian tsars. Empress Catherine I of Russia is the namesake of the palace. Although the palace is popularly associated with Catherine the Great, she actually regarded its “whipped cream” architecture as old-fashioned.

Horrible Histories cast to make Shakespeare movie

If you like your history with the foulest and funniest bits left in, get this: the people behind CBBC’s Horrible Histories are making a new film, Bill.

It’s a tale of murderous kings, spies, lost loves, and even includes a plot to blow up the Queen, Elizabeth I.

The people behind the film say they think the Bard would like the comedy “…apart from the bit where he’s dressed as a tomato.”

sachinteng:

For the New Republic article about the 100th anniversary of The New Statesman, a left leaning Labour Party strong publication. So, we thought it would be interesting to show them as a Propaganda poster, except all their utilities are made of newspaper origami.

mediumaevum:

Stairs in medieval fortifications were constructed to contain trick or stumble steps. These were steps that had different rise height or thread depth from the rest and would cause anyone running up the stairs to stumble or fall, so slowing down the attackers’ progress.

I will post a process gif soon, I just have to make it first.

“Medieval dream” dress with detachable sleeves, flax-linen gorget and wool hood

As most of our costumes this great garb is self-designed, but inspired with and based on original medieval samples and portraiture. This design is most close to Western Europe XIII century style.

Open For Business (From The Archives)

London readers continue to browse through a library, even though it was destroyed by German bombs during WWII.

What a powerful, wonderful image that perfectly illustrates the triumphant human spirit.
