XXVIII.—On an unexplained Figure in Henry the Seventh's Chapel
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 January 2012
Extract
When some time ago I was describing the figures in Henry the Seventh's Chapel to the Society, there was one which I was unable to explain, but which had so many distinguishing marks that I suggested that it must be the image of All Hallows which the people of South Cave, in Yorkshire, wanted in 1495. The suggestion was not then made seriously, and was not printed with the description. I now, however, venture to repeat it, with a few remarks intended to show that this may after all be the true explanation of the figure.
