Bodleian Libraries: Tudor Botanicals Wall Calendar 2026 (Art Calendar)

Twelve ornate artworks from The Tudor Pattern Book now housed at the Bodleian, Oxford. A fine new art calendar from Flame Tree.

This beautiful calendar showcases 12 designs from The Tudor Pattern Book, a picture book of trees and plants, animals and alphabets painted on parchment. The designs might have served as models for craftwork, especially needlework, within a great Tudor household. This manuscript has belonged to Oxford University for over three centuries, first at the Ashmolean Museum after donation by Elias Ashmole (1617–92) and later at the Bodleian Library. The works are expertly reproduced in this art calendar, Informative text accompanies each work and the datepad features previous and next month’s views. Printed on FSC-certified paper, with plastic-free packaging.
