First thoughts were Joan of arc nut maybe the black prince preparing for action?

[Ray Earle]

The St. Crispins day speech?

The armour/fashion is too late for the suggestions so far.

I suspect it's a certain Burgundian gobbing off

[Captain Blood]

1. Richard III arming for Bosworth, shortly before ending up under that Lecicester car park?
2. Henry Tudor landing at Milford Haven (NB. I've already done that one )
3. Something Swiss.

Like Captain Blood, I'd go with Richard III before Bosworth given the helmet with the crown lower left.  Alternatively it could be Henry VII being given the crown that was found on the battlefield after Bosworth.

Keep those guesses coming.....

Not guessing, but that vignette is glorious. 
The flag of the lion of St Mark in particular.

Well done Stuart!!! 

I posted this on many fora and you're the first to guess correctly..... your prize is my admiration for your historical knowledge

If I'd known that was the prize I'd have tried harder.
