The latest instalment of "The Big Read" explores an intriguing piece of art—and the bitter court battle it triggered. Passed down for centuries, the so-called 'Sanders Portrait' may (or may not) be the only painting of William Shakespeare created during his lifetime. In a story that reads like its own Shakespearean tragedy, the portrait is now in limbo, the final act still to be written. It's a Big Read you won't want to miss.
