On this day
1265 England's first Parliament met at Westminster Hall London, convened by the 6th Earl of Leicester - Simon de Montfort. Leader of the opposition to King Henry III.
In the words of one historian, "the House of Commons in embryo"
Montfort died at Battle of Evesham.
I'm giving an art demo at @EveArtSoc on Wed in #Evesham. What to paint? Seascape, still life or portrait? ....
