This portfolio is selection of images taken at the archives of St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle. These rare texts and scrolls date back to the 11th Century and offer a fascinating insight into the lives of its authors and subjects. Often written on goats skin, these texts are carefully preserved by dedicated archivists and are rarely seen by the public. Eleanor was offered an day with the archivists as part of the work for the book St George’s Chapel: A Portrait (2008).
