[Murders at Stanfield Hall] Rush on Trial.
Robert Kerr.
[n.d., c.1830.]
Laid on new backing board, some surface wear and creasing.
Portrait of James Blomfield Rush (1800-49) in the dock, during his trial for double murder. A tenant farmer of Potash Farm, Rush shot and killed his landlord Isaac Jermy and his son Isaac Jermy Jermy, hoping to blame the crime on rival claimants to the Jermy's estate. However he failed to kill the younger Jermy's widow, who escaped and was able to identify him at his trial. He was hanged and buried in the grounds of Norwich Castle. A life-size waxwork representation of Rush was displayed in the Chamber of Horrors at Madame Tussauds in London, from 1849 until 1971.
[Ref: 56596] £260.00 (£312.00 incl.VAT)
