Mourning the Monarch: this week's #TuesdayTale tells of the passing of legendary King Arthur with the sun setting on Avalon- shown by James Archer (1860) Arthur Hughes (1859), Burne-Jones (1881-1898, the artist's magnus opus measuring 279 x 650cm) & Florence Harrison (1912)

For this #SisterhoodSunday we look to America and Elizabeth Nourse (1859–1938). In ‘Happy Days’ a working class mother is repairing her child’s clothing.

Nouse was the first American woman to be voted into the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts in France.

Today’s #SisterhoodSunday is dedicated to women’s football, in honour of the Women’s Euros 2022 final later today. (Come on @Lionesses.)

Women’s football was very popular during the First World War, drawing crowds of 53,000 even after the war had ended.

This week’s #TuesdayTale, evocatively painted by Mary F Raphael (1898), is from Spenser’s Faerie Queene, Book IV, Canto 1: “Princess Britomart, disguised as a knight, fulfilling a vow to her absent lover, rescues the Lady Amoret from durance vile by slaying the monster Busyran."
