Summary[edit]

Description
English: Throne made for King Charles III of Spain, whose profile features in the medallion atop the backrest. Since the reign of King Alfonso XII (1874-1885), every Spanish sovereign has had a copy of this original made, incorporating his own portrait. Today two identical thrones are in the throne room of the Royal Palace in Madrid: one with the effigy of King Don Juan Carlos Ist, the other with that of Queen Doña Sofia. Sculpted wood, gilded in Madrid before 1772. Madrid, Patrimonio Nacional, Palacio Real, El Palacio de San Ildefonso. Photo taken during an exhibition of various thrones, in Château de Versailles, France.
Français : Ce trône a été réalisé pour le roi Charles III d'Espagne dont le profil figure dans le médaillon placé au sommet du dossier. Depuis le règne du roi Alphonse XII (1874-1885), chacun des souverains espagnols a fait copier ce modèle original en y incorporant son propre portrait. De nos jours, dans la salle du Trône du Palais Royal de Madrid, sont installés deux trônes identiques: l'un avec l'effigie du roi Don Juan-Carlos Ier, l'autre avec celle de la reine Doña Sofia. Bois sculpté, doré à Madrid avant 1772. Madrid, Patrimonio Nacional, Palacio Real, El Palacio des San Ildefonso. Photo prise lors de l'exposition "le Trône en Majesté", au Château de Versailles.
Date Middle 18th century, 1763-1766, before 1772
