Leon VI (or V depending on historians) of Lusignan, King of Armenia † 1393, King of Little Armenia from 1374 to 1375.
The last king of Little Armenia, sent into exile, took refuge with Charles V, and then with Charles VI who paid tribute to him by erecting a tomb in his name in the church of Celestins in Paris.
In accordance with oriental tradition, the lying recumbent holds a pair of gloves in his left hand, a distinctive sign of important people. In French tradition, the mark of the sovereignty of the person who is depicted on the tomb is the hand of justice.
