EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases King Charles II of Spain (1661-1700) adorned in the resplendent robes of the prestigious Order of the Golden Fleece. The painting, created by Carreno de Miranda, Don Juan (1614-85), measures 217x141 cm and is held in a private collection. King Charles II ascended to the throne following his father Philip IV's reign in 1665. His rule was marked by significant political turmoil and military conflicts. He engaged in war against France as part of the Grand Alliance and made a fateful decision that would ignite the War of Spanish Succession – selecting Philip of Anjou as his successor. In this court portrait, King Charles II exudes regal elegance and authority. The golden crown atop his head symbolizes his royal lineage while emphasizing his status as a monarch. His gaze is both commanding and contemplative, hinting at the weighty decisions he faced during his tumultuous reign. The artist skillfully captures every intricate detail of King Charles II's attire, from the luxurious fabrics to ornate embellishments befitting a ruler of such prominence. This portrait serves not only as an artistic masterpiece but also provides valuable historical insight into one of Europe's most influential figures during the seventeenth century.
