Jane Grey Exhibit

The National Portrait Gallery is having an amazing exhibit on Lady Jane Grey, the infamous “Nine Days Queen.” Tora from the National Portrait Gallery was kind enough to provide me with the press release for the exhibit which begins Feb. 24th. She stated that “the exhibition will re-examine one of the nations best-loved paintings, The Execution of Lady Jane Grey, and will show Delaroche’s sketches in preparing for it as well as exploring how 19th-century French artists looked to dramatic moments in English history for inspiration.”

Here is the press release:
