The Death of Duke Humphrey, 1447 (litho)
8661391 The Death of Duke Humphrey, 1447 (litho) by Norbury, Richard (1815-86); Private Collection; (add.info.: The Death of Duke Humphrey, 1447. Following the truce with France which necessitated the evacuation of French fortresses in Maine and elsewhere, a violent outcry arose against Suffolk and Somerset. The English refused to accept defeat and resented bitterly the terms of the truce. Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester, therefore took the lead in an agitation. He was arrested by order of the Queen immediately on his arrival at Bury St Edmunds to attend the Parliament, and his death on 23 February 1447, after only five days imprisonment, was attributed to foul play.

EDITORS COMMENTS
The Death of Duke Humphrey, 1447 captured in this lithograph by Richard Norbury is a haunting depiction of political intrigue and betrayal. The image portrays the tumultuous events surrounding the arrest and subsequent death of Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester, in 1447.
In the aftermath of a truce with France that led to the evacuation of French fortresses, tensions ran high among the English people who refused to accept defeat. Duke Humphrey took a stand against Suffolk and Somerset, leading an agitation that ultimately cost him his life. Arrested upon his arrival at Bury St Edmunds for Parliament, he died after only five days in custody under suspicious circumstances.
This illustration from Hutchinson's History of the Nations captures the momentous event with dramatic flair. The dark shadows and somber tones convey the sense of foreboding that surrounded Duke Humphrey's untimely demise. The image has been digitally enhanced to bring out its details and ensure its lasting impact on viewers.
As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the complex web of power struggles and rivalries that defined medieval England. The Death of Duke Humphrey serves as a poignant reminder of how politics can be a deadly game where even those closest to power are not safe from treachery.
