About This Event

This erasure in Richard III’s Book of Hours has sparked a scholarly discussion. Some argue it was Lady Beaufort who made the changes, viewing it as part of an early Tudor move to reshape Richard’s image. Others propose that this could indicate a different historical context, potentially from before Henry VII came to power.
