The Axe Falls: The Shocking Execution of the Teenage Queen

I opened my reporter’s notebook to the historical case called the “Nine Days Queen.”
It’s a tragic story from 16th-century England about Lady Jane Grey. 
Her life, a fleeting moment in the annals of English royalty, ended abruptly with her execution at just 16 years old.
I take you to London’s National Gallery to see her last moment poignantly captured in oil on canvas.
