1-625-276 - The Print Collector/Heritage Images

King Edward II of England, (18th century). Portrait of Edward (1284-1327) who ruled from 1307 until he was deposed in January 1327. He is thought to have been murdered later that year, possibly by having a red-hot piece of metal inserted into his rectum. This would have penetrated the entrails without leaving an exterior mark.
