17th Portrait King Charles 1st After Sir Peter Lely


1 of 6
Description
17th Portrait King Charles I Wearing The Order Of The Garter Circle Of LelyA very reasonably priced portrait of a sought after Royal sitter, this image was reportedly a final image of Charles in the tower before his untimely execution.
This is a stunning early 17th century rendition of famous Royal sitter King Charles I in an identical pose after Sir Peter Lely’s original of 1647 in which the King is painted alongside his son James Duke Of York 1633-1701.
This fine oil on canvas portrait is a reduced version Circle of Lely after the last original which was was known to have been painted during King Charles internment at Hampton Court Palace.
ABOUT ARTIST SIR PETER LELY
Born Soest, Westphalia, 14 September 1618 died London, 30 November 1680).
Painter of Dutch origin who spent almost all his career in England and was naturalized in 1662. His family name was originally van der Faes, and the name Lely is said to have come from a lily carved on the house in The Hague where his father was born.
Lely was born in Germany (where his father, a captain of infantry, was stationed) and trained in Haarlem.
He moved to England in the early 1640s (early biographers say 1641 or 1643), and although he first painted figure compositions in landscapes (Sleeping Nymphs, c.1650, Dulwich Picture Gal., London), he soon turned to the more profitable field of portraiture where he became the dominant portrait painter to the court.
This would have been Artist Sir Peter Lely’s first commission when arriving in England and depicted the King as he appeared at the end of his life.
As an early work, the influence of Van Dyck is apparent in Lely’s depiction which makes this portrait a desirable work of art to acquire.
