Summary
Print is divided into six frames. Above, the Gunpowder Plot conspirators are together in discussion in one frame, each man labeled: Bates, Robert Winter, Christopher Wright, Iohn Wright, Thomas Percy, Guido Fawkes, Robert Catesby, Thomas Winter. They are flanked on either side by frames filled with German verse. Below left, three of them are shown being dragged to execution. Below center, one of the conspirators after being executed, his head on the ground, and another man taking his heart out of his open chest cavity. Below right, all eight men's heads on pikes. Text in Latin and French is inscribed in plate beneath lower images.
Note
Three views relating to the Gunpowder plot. The original, probably only containing the illustration of the conspirators, has been attributed both to Crispijn and Simon van de Passe.
