During 2014/15 Kate Leiper’s  was to create a series of paintings that, collectively, portrayed a Michaelmas Pageant of Tudor Birds and Beasts. Swans, Ducks and Geese along with The White Bull, A Dapple Mare, Rabbits and Hunting Hounds and many more dressed and decorated for a unique parade. The collection of work was shown in The Long Gallery, part of Blickling Hall a National Trust property. Blickling is reputed to be the birthplace of Anne Boleyn.

Here one of the tenant farmers’ prize boar is refusing to join the Michaelmas Pageant so gentle force must be applied!
