I hadn’t seen TS in years, yet he treated me like a long-lost sister. His generosity knew no bounds when he presented me with a family heirloom to take home: an antique Christmas-decorated serving dish.

When he wandered off through the house to look for something else, I noticed his distinctive dress. He was wearing the garb of medieval knight, identical to that in one of LBL’s watercolours. How was he connected to her? Was the plate really one of her belongings?
