What really happened: Prisoner in an Iron Mask (Original)

(Ref: ScottSTrialLL)

Artist: Septimus Scott
Medium: Gouache on Board
Size: 15" x 17" (385mm x 435mm)
Date: 1975

This is the original Gouache painting by Septimus Scott.

English rebel, son of a king or a minor Italian nobleman? The Man in the Iron Mask was a prisoner who was held in a number of jails, including the Bastille and the Fortress of Pignerol (today Pinerolo), during the reign of Louis XIV of France. The identity of this man has been thoroughly discussed and been the subject of many books, mainly because no one ever saw his face, which was hidden by a mask of black velvet cloth. This is the original artwork from Look and Learn no. 701 (21 June 1975).

Price: £300.00 ($480.00) (€330,00)
