The Papal legate arrives!

Hi gents'

When reading about the fall of Constantinople I was interested in the schism between the Orthodox and Catholic Church's this caused one Orthodox clergyman to remark that he would rather live under the Sultans Turban than the Cardinals hat!There was a great deal of tension between the two doctrines that resulted in riots in the streets before the end.I have a few Orthodox Clergy but have now added to the Catholic faction.

This is the legate on the small boat I painted last week.
The figures are Perry Miniatures


Buildings in this pic from Touching History.


 
Figures painted by Dave Jarvis.

As you can see Dave has once more worked his magic.

The legate mounted

Not too happy about the new arrival.
The Venetians send some troops to escort to the Italian quarter

Gate to the Italian quarter.

Papal arms on the shield.

Safely in.

A better welcome here.
I have put off doing this collection for the last eight years don't know why but I am glad I did.The mix of the Perry figures and Dave's artwork is a joy to behold I am absolutely delighted with these.
I am now off to the garden to enjoy the sunshine a rare treat here in Bonnie Scotland.

Thanks for stopping by
Willie
