'Les roys de Engeltere' (London, British Library, Cotton MS Vitellius A. xiii/1), sometimes called 'Effigies regum Angliae', is a series of images of English kings from Edward the Confessor to Edward I; its text, here edited and translated, furnishes a genealogy of the royal line. This work is an example of direct reception of the Anglo-Latin and Anglo-Norman tradition of prose chronicles, using particularly the work widely known as 'Le livere de reis de Brittanie'. This source shows that most of the ambiguities present in 'Les roys' have been inherited by this manuscript, and cannot be used alone to determine its audience or history.
