Talk:The Execution of Lady Jane Grey (painting)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The reference to Charles X is incorrect. This painting was executed in 1833, three years after Charles had abdicated the throne (August 2, 1830); the Orléanist claimant to the throne, Louis-Philippe, ruled France from 1830 to 1848. Perhaps this work was originally conceived in the reign of Charles X, but it was not painted or displayed during his reign.
