It's very interesting. The picture really emphasises the idea of Thomas Boleyn, bent on revenge, having been chastised by Wolsey: 'the falling orange peel creating an orange serpent.'
Yes, Wolsey made a mistake to treat Thomas Boleyn like that, like serpents the Boleyns might come for you out of nowhere and you don't see them coming...my poor Cardinal (Wolsey was one of my favourite characters in the book)
