Légende

'Flight of Rookwood', 1897. Ambrose Rookwood (c1578-1606) was a member of the failed Gunpowder Plot of 1605. He fled London to warn the other conspirators that Guy Fawkes had been caught and arrested before the plan to blow up the Houses of Parliament could be carried out. Rookwood was later captured himself and was hanged, drawn and quartered with the others. From "The Comic History of England" by Gilbert Abbott A Beckett, with satirical illustrations by John Leech.
