Claude Duval's House in Hornsey: A Glimpse into the Life of a Notorious French Highwayman in Restoration England This view of Claude Duval's house in Hornsey, drawn in 1825, offers a glimpse into the intriguing life of a notorious French highwayman who became a legend in Restoration England. Born in 1643, Claude Duval hailed from a family of decayed nobility, a circumstance that may have fueled his desire for adventure and wealth. Duval arrived in England during the reign of King Charles II, and he quickly found employment in the service of exiled royalists who had returned to England following the monarch's restoration to the throne in 1660. The allure of the highway life beckoned, and Duval, with his dashing good looks and charisma, soon became a notorious figure on the English roads. Duval's exploits were the stuff of legend. He was said to have worn a red waistcoat and a tricorn hat, and he was known for his quick wit and cunning. He was also rumored to have had a code of honor, refusing to rob those who were poor or unable to pay. However, his luck eventually ran out, and he was captured and hanged in London in 1670. This image of Duval's house in Hornsey, drawn in 1825, offers a tantalizing glimpse into the life of this enigmatic figure. The house, located in the London suburb of Hornsey, stands as a reminder of Duval's time in England and the intrigue and adventure that surrounded him. The image also serves as a testament to the enduring allure of the romanticized figure of the highwayman in English folklore.
