Description
English: "This posthumous portrait was painted by Van Dyck for Charles I, presumably to form part of the royal family portrait gallery in the Cross Gallery at Somerset House. It is a re-interpretation of the full-length portrait of the King by Van Somer (Royal Collection). Although the head is quite carefully copied from Van Somer's prototype, Van Dyck has designed a more distinguished setting for the King. He has been given a more elegant and less static pose, all his armour has been removed and the regalia has been repositioned." [1]
