Restoration Party - The King Charles II (1630-1685) with Lady Castlemaine
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a momentous celebration in the history of England. Depicting King Charles II and his mistress, Lady Castlemaine, it showcases their joyous festivities to mark Charles' accession to the throne in 1660. The image is an engraving from "The Histoire d Angleterre, since the times the most retreats" by Francois Guizot in 1877. Created by an unknown artist from the 19th century, it now resides in a private collection. In this black and white portrayal, we witness the grandeur of a Restoration party. The king's charisma shines through as he revels alongside Lady Castlemaine, who was not only his mistress but also held prestigious titles such as Countess of Castlemaine and Duchess of Cleveland. This historical snapshot offers a glimpse into an era defined by opulence and indulgence. It symbolizes both power and pleasure intertwined within royal circles during that time. As we admire this exquisite piece of artistry captured by Bridgeman Images, let us appreciate its significance in British history. It serves as a reminder that even amidst political changes and societal expectations, human emotions like love and joy remain constants throughout time.
