PLATE 105<br />

The tomb of Lady Idoine Percy, Beverley Minster: detail of canopy. In the<br />

spandrels of the cusps of the ogee arch are the shields, held by knights<br />

(right) ofEdward III (after 1340) and of Lady Idoine's family, FitzAlan;<br />

(left) of the Warenne family and of the lordship of Clun (this last held by<br />

a lady). Below the finial, God the Father holds the soul of the deceased<br />

in a cloth supported by angels. The larger angels, like those on the other<br />

face, may have held emblems of the Passion. Lady Idoine died in 1365,<br />

but the tomb may have been carved during her lifetime
