Image title
The murder of Ivain de Galles. Owain Lawgoch, (English: Owain of the Red Hand, French: Yvain de Galles), full name Owain ap Thomas ap Rhodri (c. 1330 - July 1378), was a Welsh soldier. He led a Free Company fighting for the French against the English in the Hundred Years' War. He was a claimant to the title of Prince of Gwynedd and of Wales. The English government sent a spy, the Scot Jon Lamb, to assassinate Owain, who had been given the task of besieging Mortagne-sur-Gironde in Poitou. Lamb gained Owain's confidence and became his chamberlain,which gave him the opportunity to stab Owain to death in July 1378.
