A war elephant scene in a bestiary, Harley MS 4751, has similar great helms (http://warfare.gq/13/Harley_MS_4751-f8-Elephant.htm). This has a similar composition to a war elephant scene (http://warfare.gq/13/Rochester_Bestiary-f11v-Elephant.htm) in the Rochester Bestiary (http://warfare.gq/13/Rochester_Bestiary-1230AD.htm), but, the great helms in this have divided eye slits. Another knight statue on Wells Cathedral (http://warfare.gq/13/Wells_Cathedral_West_Front_Statues_145.htm) also has a divided eye-slit on his great helm.
