Richard III

King Richard III only ruled England for 2 years. However, his reputation has not been so good. He was branded a tyrant by Shakespeare, and he was replaced by the Tudors. He led an attack against the Tudor army during the Battle of Bosworth Field, although it was a rather easy defeat for his crew.

In 2012, they were able to recreate a photo of Richard III. They found his body, thought to be lost, in an underground parking lot back in 2012. Researchers from Dundee University used this image of him to make a rendering of him. The researchers relied on historical records since he has no realistic paintings.
