Picture of the Week #142

Arms of James V at the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Photo May 2000.

This is the companion to last week’s picture and I had a color version previously on Picture of the Week #62. And as a happy coincidence, today in 1513, James V was crowned King of Scotland. He was 17 months old and became king a few weeks earlier when James IV was killed at the Battle of Flodden.
