'Coronation of Harold King of the Anglo-Saxons, 1066', (19th century). Harold II, last Anglo-Saxon king of England (c1020-1066), swore an oath before William of Normandy to support his claim to the English throne on death of Edward the Confessor. Harold's failure to honour this supposed oath, and to have himself crowned instead, gave William excuse to invade and conquer England in 1066 and establish a feudal system.
