by Paul Delaroche, 1833
Paul Delaroche painted The Execution of Lady Jane Grey in 1833, depicting the final moments of the teenage queen. Blindfolded and dressed in white, she reaches for the block while attendants weep around her. The scene captures the pathos and injustice of her fate with theatrical precision.
Delaroche specialized in dramatic historical subjects that appealed to Romantic sensibilities. Lady Jane ruled England for just nine days before being executed for treason. This painting became one of the National Gallery's most popular works.
