The figure of Queen Elizabeth in armour, forms a proper addition to the
collection. She stands in a spirited attitude, by a cream-coloured
horse, attended by her page. The axe that beheaded the unfortunate Ann
Boleyn, wife of the cruel King Henry the Eighth, is also shown here. The
small armoury contains stands of arms for one hundred thousand men,
tastefully arranged in a variety of figures. The apartment is three
hundred and forty-five feet in length, and is thought to exceed every
thing of the kind in Europe.
