This circular print, created by an unknown artist between 1702-1714, features a detailed genealogy of English monarchs. The artwork utilizes a circular design, with each ring containing a list of monarchs and their reign dates in French. The central image depicts a globe with the inscription, "Omnibus Un Aeadem Que Micat," Latin for "All under one banner shine forth." This suggests the importance of unity under a single monarch, a theme that resonates with the artwork's focus on royal lineage. The circular format, paired with the dense textual information, creates a visually compelling illustration of English history.
