One of the best images available for the descriptions of the stages
of execution: Drawing through the streets, Hanging and Quartering.
Let us not forget burning the still live organs and dipping the still
live body parts in hot pitch  (so that they will last longer on display
when the heads and at times other body parts were placed on pikes
located on gates and other public places). The image does not depart
significantly from reality and captures the first hand accounts of the
actual executions.
