The photo above was taken from http://www.faversham.org/history/people/Thomas_Arden.aspx. It illustrates the moments prior to the murder of Arden of Faversham, with Arden being the man sitting to the left of the table with a cloth around his face; he was dragged to the floor being killed.
This is a modern-day photograph of the Ardens house, in which Alice and her crew of hitmen successfully murdered Thomas Arden. (http://www.faversham.org/history/people/Thomas_Arden.aspx)
Laura Thompson, a writer for The Telegraph, wrote this interesting article about a production of Arden of Faversham in Stratford. Although the article has little academic merit, it served as an interesting take on how modern theater fanatics view the 1592 play. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/theatre/10775092/A-real-Tudor-murder-story-rekindled.html
