The outcome was inevitable. The English Queen decided Mary must die. One picture, the most tragic in Holyrood' s whole collection, captures her final moments. This is Mary as Catholic icon. As martyr. She has not one crucifix, but two her prayer book in her hand, and then, just to that side there, you can see where her Catholicism led her, in this gruesome scene of Mary being beheaded on the scaffold at Fotheringay, by order of Elizabeth. And the executioner is poised there with his axe and you can see he' s already landed one blow because the blood is pouring from Mary' s neck. |
