Summary |
A hand-colored woodcut of Henry VIII of England on horseback. Completed around 1561, just after the King's death, he is shown jousting, which was one of his favorite past-times. Interestingly enough,ℓit was a jousting match injury that left a young Henry with a wound that would ulcerate and fester in his later years, causing a great deal of pain and a foul temper. |
