The Courtauld Institute of Art, Vernon Square Campus, Lecture Theatre 2
Book your tickets and learn more about the lecture on the Courtauld’s website.
The Courtauld is delighted to host the Corpus of Romanesque Sculpture in Britain and Ireland for the 2026 Annual Lecture.
In this talk, Dr Agata Gomółka and Professor Sandy Heslop will explore the The Romanesque Sculpture of Norwich Castle Keep. The doorway into the great hall of Norwich castle keep is the grandest early Romanesque portal in England both in terms of scale and the profusion of its carved stone elements. It has been little studied perhaps because it is in a secular rather than an ecclesiastical building. In this lecture, we discuss its contexts, in Norwich and beyond, and the date, purpose and sources of the sculpture.
Speakers:
Dr Agata Gomółka , Project Assistant Curator, Norwich Castle Museum and Art Gallery.
Professor Sandy Heslop, Emeritus Professor of Visual Arts, University of East Anglia
Co-organised by Dr Agata Gomółka and Dr Jessica Barker, Senior Lecturer in Medieval Art History at the Courtauld, as part of the Medieval Work-in-Progress series. The series is generously supported by Sam Fogg.
Booking for this talk is available on the Courtauld Website.

Dear Anthony, I’m really sorry to hear about this. Unfortunately, Medieval Art Research just posts about the events and has nothing to do with the organisation or delivery of the variety of events we publish about. As this talk was by the The Corpus of Romanesque Sculpture, it might be worth getting in touch with them.
Good morning, I was extremely disappointed on Wednesday evening, on visiting the Courtauld Vernon Rise Campus, to find that this session had been cancelled. I had received no email or phone call to my landline ( I am diagnosed allergic to the mobile phone), to notify me of the cancellation. The lady at Reception at Courtauld ,Rosie, was as confused as I was, having no received no notice of cancellation herself. I have emailed Mr.Diego Arteche of Courtault to complain but have not received any reply. I would be very much obliged if you would kindly look into this matter and let me know why I was not contacted about your cancellation. Thanking you in anticipation for your kind attention to this matter, Yours sincerely Anthony Weaver
