George on a horse with a lance, Margaret stepping out of the beast that swallowed her, Martha leading hers on a ribbon: the dragon is evil already defeated, which is why it is so often small, and underfoot, and painted with the care given to a lizard rather than the fear given to a monster. The princess in the background of the George stories is a narrative fixture, not a portrait.
