Saint Louis punishing Enguerrand IV of Coucy, 1256 (1882-1884). In 1256, King Louis IX of France had Enguerrand IV, Lord of Coucy, arrested and brought to Paris after he hanged without trial three young men who he had accused of poaching in his forests. Enguerrand demanded to be judged by his peers and trial by combat. The king, believing such a means of trying a case to be obsolete, refused. Enguerrand was tried, found guilty and ordered to pay a fine of 12,000 livres. After a painting by Olivier Merson. A print from La France et les Français à Travers les Siècles, Volume I, F Roy editor, Saint-Antoine, 1882-1884. (Photo by The Print Collector/Print Collector/Getty Images)
