Image: Royal coats of arms of King Christian I and Queen Dorothea of Denmark
Description: Frescoes in the Chapel of the Magi in Roskilde Cathedral, Denmark, depicting the royal coats of arms of the Danish king Christian I (1426–1481) and his queen, Dorothea of Brandenburg (1430/1431–1495). The frescoes likely postdate the king’s death in 1482, although the coat of arms shown is equivalent to one known in seals from 1460 onwards. The king’s coat of arms is supported by a knight and a wodewose (wild man), while the queen’s is supported by a woman and a knight.
