A dark, atmospheric illustration of Philip of Valois asserting his claim to the French throne, rendered in the evocative style of Edmund Blair Leighton. Philip stands tall in a grand, dimly lit hall, dressed in elaborate royal robes adorned with intricate embroidery and the fleur-de-lis, symbols of his claim.
