Description
-
Queen Elizabeth I is depicted standing on a raised dais to the left of the image, drinking from a pitcher of beer she holds in both hands. In front of her is the ancestor of Pitt Crawley, a man with a pointed beard, kneeling and holding the platter from which the beer was taken. A slight figure of a guard can be seen behind the queen, and in the top right of the picture, the letter A from “Among” is seen through a window.
