The Blount Memorial (detail) in the Chapel Royal of St Peter ad Vincula. This imposing memorial commemorates Sir Richard Blount and his son, Sir Michael, who were both Lieutenants of the Tower during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I (1558-1603). Their skulls were placed in niches in the alabaster frieze. One of Sir Michael's daughters holds a skull, symbolising death and indicating that she died before her father
