1372-1373 - 'count Philip I of Flanders (+1191)' (Jan van der Asselt), Gravenkapel, Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk, Kortrijk, province of West Flanders, Belgium

It's always interesting to compare original art with its later 'restoration':
On the left a drawing of Count Philip I of Flanders (+1191) by Félix de Vigne, 1858; after an original wall painting by Jan van der Asselt, depicting count Philip in early 1370s armour.
On the right the highly fanciful late 19th century restoration.
Do note the possibly exceptional double plaque belt in the original wall painting; but this could in fact be a mistake by Félix de Vigne trying to render a plaque belt made up of three large squares each divided in 4 separate squares.

For the record: the pictures aren't mine.
