    Been to Hampton Court three times. Every time my mind is blown away by the history there. Honestly one of my favorite places I’ve ever been.

    I love 16th century interior design far, far more than later centuries. I wish all royal palaces and castles could be reverted to their original interior designs, but I know that would be expensive and difficult. Nonetheless, I am so happy these skilled conservators do their jobs. Because of their fine work, we get to enjoy visions of the past.

    The art work that's gone into these places are amazing and mind blowing to know how people built some of these room, the time that went into it, the planning, the art and hard working souls! I love this.

    My gut is telling me that this was largely a retrofit after Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn took over the palace, as this looks like the more Continental Renaissance 'antique' style that the couple were both fond of, and is free of religious symbolism. It's possible some of the motifs were from Wolsey's time, but if it was definitely one of his main chambers, Henry and Anne would have completely removed any symbols or initials that explicitly referred to Wolsey. What was where the Prince of Wales plume panels are now? Originally a Wolsey 'W' then replaced by 'H&A', then 'H&I' (Jane Seymour used the Roman I for her initial J), etc.?

    Do they have any documentation of the people who worked on Hampton court like the brick layers

      John Bladykas
      It's very unlikely that individual 'brikkies' would have been recorded by name John - even principal artisans were only occasionally known by name. Some foreign masters are known, for example Pietro Torrigiano who designed the elaborate tomb of King Henry VII in the Lady Chapel at Westminster Abbey.

      It's not impossible that there are some references. Certainly the names of many of the servant who worked there are known.

      I invite you to heaven. God made you and loves you. He knows that you are not perfect. You know it too. Simply admit it and let him take the penalty for your misdeeds. In Jesus. Your next life will then be in heaven, a beautiful place where love abounds. Not bound in the endless rebirth cycles of the samsara.
