Catherine Howard (c1520 - 1542) was much younger than Henry VIII (1491 - 1547). She made the treasonable mistake of having an affair with a cousin of her mother's, Thomas Culpepper. When King Henry was given the details of her adultery, he is said to have cried, as he had always thought of Catherine as his "rose without a thorn". Catherine (a cousin of Anne Boleyn's) was beheaded on 13 February 1542, at the Tower of London, having asked for the block to be brought to her the night before, so that she could practice placing her head upon it. The scaffold and block would have been her last view therefore, before a blindfold was placed around her eyes.
