Ford Madox Brown Murals
The Trial of Wycliffe A.D. 1377
This is perhaps the most ambitious and successful of all the twelve paintings. Wycliffe stands on trial in St. Paul's. His patron, John of Gaunt, Earl of Palatine of Lancaster, and son of the King, is defending him. Chaucer, the Duke's other protégé, is seen taking notes.
