The Execution of Lady Jane Grey
''The Execution of Lady Jane Grey'' is an oil painting by Paul Delaroche completed in 1833. It was kept in storage for many decades, for much of which it was thought lost. It is currently kept in the National Gallery in London. It is a highly popular work, especially with younger visitors.〔Adams, Tim, ("How Tudorphilia rescued Delaroche" ), in ''New Statesman''〕 The painting portrays, erroneously in some regards, the moments preceding the death of Lady Jane Grey, who on 10 July 1553 was proclaimed Queen of England, only to be deposed nine days later and executed in 1554. Jane is sometimes known as the "Nine Days' Queen" due to the brevity of her reign.

(詳細はHenry VII of England and first cousin once removed to his grandson, the short-lived Edward VI. After the king's death she was proclaimed queen, being given precedence over Henry VIII's daughters, Mary Tudor and Elizabeth. Two weeks after the death of her brother, Mary, who had the support of the English people, claimed the throne, which Jane relinquished, having reigned for only nine days. Jane, her husband Lord Guilford Dudley, and her father, were imprisoned in the Tower of London on charges of high treason. Jane's trial was conducted in November, but the death penalty handed to her was temporarily suspended. In February 1554, Jane's father, who had been released, was one of the rebel leaders in Wyatt's rebellion. On Friday 12 February, Mary had Jane, then aged 16, and her husband beheaded. Her father followed two days later.
