Légende

The New Houses of Parliament - Bas-reliefs in the Prince's Chamber - Mary Queen of Scots leaving the Shores of France, 1857. One of a '...series of historic tableaux which enrich the walls of this elegant apartment...In this composition, the lovely Queen is taking a last look at the French coast from the poop of a vessel on which she is reclining; behind her are two female attendants, and behind them is the flapping sail and sturdy mast. A young page also reclines listlessly on a cushion, at the foot of the tapestried dais upon which the Queen is seated. A sentinel stands somewhat lower than the other figures, and is evidently watching the receding shore with as much earnestness as his Royal mistress'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857.
