This brooch is believed to have been given by Mary, Queen of Scots to one of her closest attendants. Mary Seton was a devoted assistant and friend of Mary, and lived with her at the Palace of Holyroodhouse from 1561–6 after spending her childhood in France with the young Queen.
The brooch dates from around 1580 and is made from enamelled gold and studded with pearls and rubies. It is on display in Mary, Queen of Scots’ Outer Chamber at the Palace.

TODAY IN HISTORY: May 19
19 May 1536: England's King Henry VIII's second wife, Anne Boleyn, is beheaded for adultery, treason and incest.
The King likely had her arrested, charged and executed because she did not bear him a son.
19 May 1568: England's Queen Elizabeth I has Mary, Queen of Scots, arrested after Mary claimed she was the legitimate heir to the throne.
She would be executed in 1587 after having been found guilty of plotting to assassinate Elizabeth.
19 May 1943: Churchill gives his second wartime address to the U.S. Congress, pledging his full support in the fight against Japan.
Later that evening, he and President Franklin D. Roosevelt agreed on 1 May 1944 for the D-Day invasion, but it occurs on June 6.
19 May 1909: Sir Nicholas Winton, who, on the eve of WWII, rescues 669 Czechoslovakian, mostly Jewish children from the Nazis by ensuring passage to England, is born in Hampstead, England. He died on 1 July 2015 in Slough.

Time Travel Question : Murder and Disappearance Edition I
Given that Judge Crater, Roanoke, and the Dyatlov Pass Incident are credibly solved, though not 100% provable, I'm leaving them out in favor of things ,ore mysterious. I almost left out Amelia Earhart, but the evidence there is sketchier.
Some people were a little confused. Edward V and Richard of Shrewsbury are the Princes in the Tower.

"A death mask is a likeness of a person's face after their death, usually made by taking a cast or impression from the corpse. Death masks may be mementos of the dead or be used for creation of portraits.
The main purpose of the death mask from the Middle Ages until the 19th century was to serve as a model for sculptors in creating statues and busts of the deceased person. Not until the 1800s did such masks become valued for themselves.
In other cultures a death mask may be a funeral mask, an image placed on the face of the deceased before burial rites, and normally buried with them. The best known of these are the masks used in ancient Egypt as part of the mummification process, such as the mask of Tutankhamun, and those from Mycenaean Greece such as the Mask of Agamemnon."
