Magnet pictures a selection of portraits of Robert Devereux (1566-1601), 2nd Earl of Essex.
Devereux is sometimes described as English Queen Elizabeth's last Favorite. Despite various charming attributes, he finally led a failed revolt against the queen that she could not dismiss, resulting in his beheading.
In modern times Devereux has been portrayed in film/TV by Robin Ellis, Hugh Dancy and Hans Matheson.
