Pictures and short extracts from The National and Domestic History of England Volume I (A.D. 1399 – 1603), by William Hickman Smith Aubrey (1858 – 1916). The book is undated, but is probably 1878, since I found someone selling a copy with an inscription dated 1879.

Arrest of the Duke of Gloucester
On a grassy knoll, with trees, outside a castle, the King’s soldiers arrest the Duke of Gloucester on his horse.
