armour of the Black Prince. At Badminton, in the collection of the Duke of Beaufort, there is a contemporary portrait of the third Earl of Worcester wearing apparently this armour (Fig. 1110), also an engraving taken from a variation of the same portrait, in which the suit in question is even more clearly shown (Fig. 1111). The extra pieces of this suit are especially interesting because the drawing of them in the Jacobe MS. is signed: thes peces wer made by me Jacobe.
