DYK

[edit]

Very nice! Will you put it up for DYK? Johnbod (talk) 13:46, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm planning to do it today. Very short of images. There are some little ones in Strong that I could scan, but unsatisfactorily. I have yet to find decent online images of the Valois tapestries (there is a coloured one in my Frieda book, but again, paperback size). Otherwise I may just have to stick in the usual Clouet portraits. Nothing that would work as a DYK image; may just have to go there imageless. Shame, since this is such a visual topic. qp10qp (talk) 14:05, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I had a poke round this database, which does have loads of books worthing linking to, but so far all ther pics are poxy "devices". Johnbod (talk) 14:34, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
