So this evening I had dinner with Beth and, as we frequently do, we got to discussing historiography, and at one point she said "Polydore Vergil had several bees in his bonnet, and one of them was Henry VII."

The result was the image graphically rendered here. )

hath not thy rose a thorn, silliness

Strange how Henry VII actually looks natural with his head stuck on a bee...

Snarf.

I appreciate your devilish disregard for scale. Also, you have officially set the bar for the level of genuinely humorous silliness I will now expect my day to contain. Go you.

well, if it were scaled, you wouldn't be able to tell what it was! And all the bigger pictures I could find that contained both red and white roses had them in bouquet form. It just wasn't the same.

But yay for bar-setting! ;)
