"Richard Plantagenet and the Earl of Somerset stand beside a rose-bush under a large tree, with Suffolk, Warwick, Vernon and another lawyer, each urging them to show their support for whichever party they believe has told the truth, to pick a rose, white for Plantagenet, red for Somerset. Trial proof with open figures."--British Museum online catalogue
