The scene is filled with rich details that transport us back to a time when Britain was undergoing great exploration and discovery. The cardinal's arrival at Leicester Abbey is marked by a magnificent procession, where he is greeted with much celebration and fanfare. The costumes worn by those present reflect the opulence and splendor of Henry VII's court.
