This 1782 engraving by Robert Strange, titled "Charles I, King of England, with James, 1st Duke of Hamilton," depicts Charles I, King of England, in an outdoor setting. The scene is likely a moment of leisure and features Charles, who is at the center of the composition, wearing a hat and holding a staff. He is accompanied by James, 1st Duke of Hamilton, who stands beside him, and a horse that stands in the background. The engraving, now at The Art Institute of Chicago, is a great example of the portrait and historical genre.
