The artwork is part of a private collection and has been digitally cleaned to restore its original beauty. The Great Seal of Empress Matilda holds significant historical value as it represents a pivotal figure in English history. Matilda was a powerful and influential woman who sought to claim her rightful place as Queen of England during the tumultuous period known as "The Anarchy".
