A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

The Ashmolean is proud to be a partner venue for the National Treasures displays in 2024 and is showcasing the Wilton Diptych in the England: 400-1600 Gallery over the summer from 10 May. As part of its 200th birthday celebrations, the National Gallery is loaning 12 paintings to venues around the UK.
Join this object-in-focus talk to hear about the symbolism and history of the Wilton Diptych, painted about 1395-9 and made for Richard II, King of England from 1377 to 1399.
The small, portable devotional artwork is one of a handful of English panel paintings to have survived from the Middle Ages.
