Attempted Assassination of Queen Victoria by Roderick Maclean 18
Vintage engraving of the attempted assassination of Queen Victoria by Roderick Maclean. This was the last of eight attempts over a period of forty years to kill or assault Victoria. McLeans motive was purportedly a curt reply to some poetry that he had mailed to the Queen. Tried for high treason, McLean was found not guilty, but insane by a jury after five minutes deliberation, and he lived out his remaining days in Broadmoor Asylum. The London Illustrated News, 1882
