Pictures from the Royal Academy: Waiting for the Duc de Guise - Seymour Lucas, A.R.A., 1895. 'The defeat of the Spaniards disposed Guise to conciliation, and to delay, at least for a time, the transfer to himself of the crown which the League intended to accomplish. The King anticipated his ambition, and on the 23rd of December, at the Chateau de Blois, the daggers of assassins revenged the day of the barricades. Froude'. On 23 December 1588, Henri I de Lorraine, Duke of Guise was assassinated by the Quarante Cinq (the forty-five guards) serving King Henri III of France. From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
