The costume the man on the far left is wearing seems more 1490s-early 1500s than 1460s-80s.

Also-how many people were in on the precontract? I can only think of: Edward IV, Eleanor Talbot, and Robert Stillington (and I don’t know how Stillington learned).

The first one is reminiscent of a Graham Turner painting! The comment on that one in particular made me smile x
