This etching by Dutch artist Dirk Stoop depicts the arrival of King Charles II and his queen to Hampton Court Palace in 1662. The scene is a grand procession with many figures on horseback, and a large carriage at the center, which is likely the royal carriage. The palace itself is shown in the background, and the composition is highly detailed and intricate. The piece offers a glimpse into the grandeur and pomp of the English monarchy in the 17th century.
