Description

Introducing 'Roll of Arms ‘collection by Serge Averbukh, showcasing convergent media artwork featuring historical antique and vintage rolls of arms, carefully restored and transformed into gorgeous large format fine art prints. Here you will find fine art pieces featuring King of England Coat of Arms from Livro do Armeiro-Mor, a Portuguese official roll from 1509, compiled by João do Cró, Portugal King of Arms. It includes almost 400 real and imaginary coats of arms, including those of the Nine Worthies, of the states of Europe, Africa and Asia, of the electors of the Holy Roman Emperor, of the pairs of France, of members of the Portuguese Royal Family and of the other noble families of Portugal.
Henry was the son of Edmund Tudor, Earl of Richmond, who died before Henry was born, and Margaret Beaufort, a descendant of Edward III through John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster. Although the Beaufort line, which was originally illegitimate, had been specifically excluded (1407) from all claim to the throne, the death of the imprisoned Henry VI (1471) made Henry Tudor head of the house of Lancaster. At this point, however, the Yorkist Edward IV had established himself securely on the throne, and Henry, who had been brought up in Wales, fled to Brittany for safety.
