EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration is a masterpiece by the German artist Friedrich Christian Geyser, created in the late 18th century as part of the "History of Henry VIII" series. The image depicts the Duke of Buckingham, Edward Stafford (1478-1521), standing before a tribunal, surrounded by stern-faced judges. Edward, the 3rd Duke of Buckingham, was a favorite of King Henry VIII, but his fortunes turned when he was accused of treason and high crimes. This etching in black and white captures the dramatic moment of his judgement, with the duke showing a defiant expression as he faces the consequences of his actions. The image is a poignant reminder of the complexities of royalty and the harsh realities of the law in the 16th century. This historic artwork is now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, adding to the rich heritage of art and history in the United States.
