Portret van Karel I, koning van Engeland 1738

This engraving by John (II) Faber, created in 1738, depicts Charles I, King of England. Faber's work is a reproduction of the original painting by Anthony van Dyck, a celebrated portrait artist of the 17th century. The inscription at the bottom of the print indicates that Faber's copy is based on a copy by Peter Lely, a well-known portrait painter. The portrait showcases Charles I in a regal pose, adorned with elaborate attire and the insignia of the Order of the Garter. It provides a glimpse into the grandeur and power associated with the English monarchy during this period.
