My favourite period? This exact moment when King Edward desperately wanted a male heir to succeed him on the English throne, was dying, and nature told them no. Every descendant, even from the lines they didn't want (bastards, Catholics), was female. So on his death bed, he placed a woman in line of the succession for the first time ever: Jane, a 16 year old girl and I think one of the brightest people ever. She did become queen that next day and stayed so for a few more days, deposed by another woman (Mary I) who raised an army.
This is Tudor times and I don't know whether that counts as medieval or modern.

Preparatory sketch by Henry Holiday for an illustration to Lewis Carroll's "The Hunting of the Snark".
There seems to be a pictorial reference to the Sphinxes' breast in the sketch.
