Richard II resigning the Crown; 1399. Following his surrender to Henry of Bolingbroke at Flint on 19 August 1399; Richard agreed to abdicate on condition that his life was spared. He was thereupon taken to London; and on the way submitted to the humiliation of riding behind his rival. On 30 September deed of abdication was signed at the Tower; after which Parliament ordered that Richard should be kept in strict confinement. He was secretly taken to the castle of Pontefract; where he was done to death in 1400. Illustration for Hutchinson's History of the Nations (Hutchinson; c.1920).
