Sometimes in movies I know they make more than one of a costume if needed, I just wondered if you might know.

Brussels, Lisbon, Toledo and Madrid got to see them first... quite rightly! Then the rest of the world, if you please! If the exhibit does not come to Australia, I'll look for the catalogue of "The Invention of Glory: Afonso V and the Pastrana Tapestries". In the meantime, thank you for the National Gallery of Art website.

The restoration work is extremely well done. We saw this in DC, it was definitely worth the trip. The restoration work is extremely well done.
