Henry VI, King of England, invoked as a saint. The king is portrayed with his crown, holding the sceptre in his right hand and the orb in his left, and wearing a mantle trimmed with ermine, standing on a carpet. He is positioned at the centre of an arch supported by pillars, which frame the picture, and surrounded by kneeling figures of smaller stature. At his feet the seated figure of a fantastic beast with serrated horns and tusks, to be identified as the antelope which Henry VI used as a badge. [England, c.1490-1500]
