Queen Margaret placing a paper crown on the head of the Duke of York, c1450-c1460 (18th century(?)).Artist: Brown

Queen Margaret placing a paper crown on the head of the Duke of York, c1450-c1460 (18th century(?)). Margaret of Anjou (1430-1482), Queen Consort of Henry VI of England with Richard Plantagenet, Duke of York (1411-1460). Their rivalry was a major catalyst for the Wars of the Roses. Richard governed England as Lord Protector during Henry's mental illness in 1453-1454 and held ambitions to take the throne for himself. After a lengthy power struggle, Richard was killed by Lancastian forces at the Battle of Wakefield in 1460. His head was displayed on a pike above Micklegate Bar in York, wearing a paper crown. His son took the throne as King Edward IV the following year after the Yorkists decisively defeated the Lancastrians at the Battle of Towton

Cartoon, Good-Bye! (Gladstone and Disraeli)

Cartoon, Good-Bye! Conservative Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli says goodbye to his political rival, William Gladstone, who was giving up the leadership of the Liberal Party, and not intending to appear much in Parliament during the 1875 sessions. Gladstone had already published a pamphlet challenging the Pope's claim to infallibility, and was about to publish a second one defending the first pamphlet against various criticisms it had attracted. (Gladstone would return to politics later.) Date: 1875
