EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print, dating back to the early 20th century, takes us back in time to witness a pivotal moment in English history - the arrest of Guy Fawkes. The engraving depicts a dramatic scene at the entrance of a doorway, capturing the very essence of conspiracy and capture. Guy Fawkes, also known as Guido Fawkes, was one of the key conspirators involved in the infamous Gunpowder Plot of 1605.
