More about this scene

Although the church of St Mary's has many interesting points, clearly the main object of interest in this picture is the building next door, Buckden Palace. Although but a fraction of the original 15th century palace, this nevertheless impressive building was the residence of the Bishops of Lincoln up until 1842. Katherine of Aragon was imprisoned in one of the corner turrets for a year after her marriage to Henry VIII was annulled.
