King Edward III Greetings Card
Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:
King Edward III NPG 332
© National Portrait Gallery, London
by Elkington & Co, cast by Domenico Brucciani, after Unknown artist
The likeness of Edward's copper-gilt tomb effigy in Westminster Abbey may have been based on a death mask. However, as can be seen in the electrotype of the upper part of the figure, the final effigy does not show evidence of the paralysis that struck the king shortly before his death.
Card size: 125mm x 175mm
Images are printed in their original proportions, within a white border.
