Anne did not wear Katherine’s crown but she did commandeer her barge. Chapuys, incredulous at such effrontery, exploded to Charles that the queen’s arms ‘had been removed … and rather ignominiously torn off and cut to pieces’, so that Anne’s could replace them. ‘God grant that she may be satisfied with the barge, the jewels and the queen’s husband without attempting anything … against the persons of the queen and princess,’ he continued dryly. Rather like Henry VII’s name and badges overwriting Richard III’s after the Battle of Bosworth, Anne’s coronation would overwrite Katherine’s.
