I had two light historical novels published back in the 70s, about the same 
characters. The cover of the first gave an excellent interpretation of the hero 
and heroine, but the second, by a different artist, simply copied a magazine 
photo of a reenactor to represent him, including wrong hair colour!

As Elizabeth Walpole said, my first thought was that the Lady Jane Grey image 
must have been one of those from the Houses of Parliament. We had a discussion 
of a similar one of Mary Tudor a while back.
