Summary

Description
English: Frescoes in the Chapel of the Magi in Roskilde Cathedral, Denmark, depicting the royal coats of arms of the Danish king Christian I (1426–1481) and his queen, Dorothea of Brandenburg (1430/1431–1495). The frescoes likely postdate the king’s death in 1482, although the coat of arms shown is equivalent to one known in seals from 1460 onwards. The king’s coat of arms is supported by a knight and a wodewose (wild man), while the queen’s is supported by a woman and a knight.
Dansk: Kalkmalerier i Helligtrekongers Kapel i Roskilde Domkirke af de sammensatte kongevåbener tilhørende kong Christian I. (1426-1481) og hans dronning, Dorothea af Brandenburg (1430/1431-1495). Freskerne er formentlig fra efter kongens død i 1481, om end kongens våben i denne form kendes i segl allerede fra 1460. Kongens skjold holdes af en ridder og en vildmand, dronningens af en kvinde og en ridder.
