Funeral effigy of Elizabeth of York - a photo on Flickriver

            Funeral effigy of Elizabeth of York, wife to Henry VII of England and mother to Henry VIII. She was therefore Queen Mary I’s paternal grandmother. The effigy was carried in her funeral procession and is carved in wood. As it is not the death mask it is questionable how much it fully reflections Elizabeth’s real appearance.

Elizabeth died on 11th February 1503 shortly after the birth of a daughter Katherine who died before her mother. Her death was greatly mourned as she appears to have been liked and admired by the majority. The narrative of her funeral describes her as ‘one of the most gracious and best beloved Princesses in the world’
