Drawn on Stone by T. Allom Printed by C. Hullmandel
Arnold's Magazine of the Fine Arts [c.1833]
Rare lithograph, sheet 275 x 220mm (10¾ x 8½").
Francis Goodwin (1784-1835) was one of seventeen architects invited to submit designs for a new House of Commons in 1833. Goodwin's Perpendicular scheme, seen here, was much admired when he published it. They influenced entries for the new Houses of Parliament which were solicited after the disastrous fire of 1834 made a whole new Houses of Parliament building necessary. That competition, of course, was won by Charles Barry, whose designs resulted in one of London's most iconic buildings.

[n.d. c.1690.]
Engraving. Mounted on an album page. Plate 322 x 191mm. 12¾ x 7½". Some staining in the margins.
Catherine Howard (c.1521-1542), was the fifth wife of Henry VIII of England. She was however she was beheaded after less than two years of marriage to Henry on the grounds of treason, meaning adultery committed while married to the King. Catherine was stripped of her title as queen and imprisoned in Syon House, Middlesex, through the winter of 1541. Catherine's relatives were also detained in the Tower, except her uncle Thomas, Duke of Norfolk, who had sufficiently detached himself from the scandal. All of the Howard prisoners were tried, found guilty of concealing treason, and sentenced to life imprisonment and forfeiture of goods. In time, however, they were released with their goods restored. Catherine herself remained in suspension until Parliament passed a bill of attainder, on 21 January 1542, that made it treason - punishable by death - for a queen consort to fail to disclose her sexual history to the king within 20 days of their marriage, or to incite someone to have adultery with her. This solved the matter of Catherine's supposed pre-contract and made her unequivocally guilty. Catherine was taken to the Tower of London on 10 February 1542. On 11 February, Henry signed the bill of attainder into law, and Catherine's execution was scheduled for 7 a.m. on 13 February.
