Summary

Description
English: A four-poster bed in Blair Castle, in the Tapestry room. The Mortlake Tapestries that line this room belonged to King Charles I and were sold by Cromwell after the King’s execution. Discovered in Paris and purchased by the 1st Duke, they were brought to Blair Castle. The great William and Mary State Bed is hung with fine silks made by the Huguenot silk dressers of Spitalfields. It was brought to Blair Castle from Holyrood Palace by the 1st Duke who had an apartment there as Lord Privy Seal to the Scottish Parliament, until he was sent home under house arrest for opposing the Act of Union.
