Is this the correct Henry? edit
In virtual British Library, I've found this image:

- There, Henry II is the left on top.
- The author, Matthew Paris, lived as a writing and drawing monk of St Albans Abbey, from 1217 to 1259. He can't have seen Henry II, but he may have followed the current iconography of his time.
- Also the description of this file names Mattew Pars as the author.
