Description
-
The image shows King Henry VIII holding hands with Anne Boleyn. It depicts him bringing Anne to court, who later became his royal consort. In the engraving, a man, who possibly holds a position within the church as he wears a cross, looks at them disgustedly as he leans against an arm chair. At the bottom of the print there is writing which states “King Henry VIII bringing to court Anna Bullen, who was afterwards his royal consort.”
