About this work
On the left, a throne with a globus cruciger and above it the coat of arms of England; on the right, William the Conqueror with a shield and a sword; between them, a herald holding a staff in one hand and a book in the other. In the background, a vague landscape. This print is part of an eight-part series of prints of kings and queens of England (ungnumbered title page and seven numbered prints with two to four figures).
