Bedsheet embroidered with human hair from a severed head by the Countess of Derwentwater, 1716

The 300-year-old linen was embellished by Anna Maria Radclyffe in memory of her husband James, who was beheaded for treason in 1716.

The third Earl of Derwentwater and grandson of Charles II, he was 26 when he was executed for his involvement in the first Jacobite rebellion.

…The design, of intricate flowers, leaves and a large wreath in the shape of a heart, frames the inscription “The sheet OFF MY dear Lord’s Bed in the wretched Tower of London February 1716 x Ann C of Darwent=Waters”
