'Mary Stuart, Queen of France and Scotland, and Henry Lord Darnley, Her Husband', (1816). Darnley (1545-1567) was the second husband of Mary, Queen of Scots, who had previously been married to King Francis II of France. Darnley was murdered at Kirk O'Field near Edinburgh in February 1567. Mary was forced to abdicate the Scottish throne shortly afterwards in favour of her one year old son, James, and fled to England. As a Catholic with a claim to the throne of her cousin, Elizabeth I, Mary (1542-1587) became a focus for plots, and was eventually imprisoned and executed. A print from Fifteen Splendid Portraits of Royal Personages, engraved in mezzotinto by Richard Earlom, Charles Turner and R Dunkarton, printed by J McCreery, Black Horse Court, Fleet Street, London, 1816.
