Description
This neat historical reference (apparently based on a similar chart in the Kaiser’s Alcove at Osborne House on the Isle of Wight) presents the rulers of England in chronological order, with a Corinthian column representing their respective length of reign. These range from the single-year rules (albeit for much different reasons) of Edward V (1483) and Edward VII (1936) to the majestic 63-year sovereignty of Queen Victoria. Queen Elizabeth II, last on the list, would claim this impressive title after reigning for over 70 years!
