So sad to read that Prof Sydney Anglo has passed. He was the man who made the connection between the archives & the art to bring #JohnBlanke back to life after 500yrs buried in the records. He was gracious & so modest. He contributed to #JohnBlankeProject https://t.co/La2SIHEyzL

My tribute to black Tudor trumpeter John Blanke commissioned in 2015 on the National Portrait Gallery site. Tomorrow I meet historian Michael I. Ohajuru to sign prints before his new book is published. #JohnBlanke #Tudor #NPG #BLM https://t.co/eP7o2mUd6Z…
