EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent oil on canvas portrait of James II, painted by the renowned artist Peter Lely. The painting measures an impressive 232x137 cm and is housed in the prestigious Royal Hospital Chelsea in London, UK. In this exquisite artwork, we see James Duke of York (later King James II) depicted in all his regal splendor. Standing tall and proud, he dons the resplendent Garter Robes as he gazes towards the left with a commanding presence. Every detail of his attire exudes opulence - from the rich red and white drapery to the majestic blue robes adorned with symbols of power. The baroque style employed by Lely adds a sense of grandeur to this portrayal, perfectly capturing the essence of monarchy during that era. As one's eyes are drawn to James II's confident stance and kingly aura, it becomes evident why he was deemed fit for kingship. This remarkable piece not only immortalizes a significant figure in British history but also serves as a testament to Lely's exceptional talent as an artist. With its vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail, this painting continues to captivate viewers even centuries after its creation. As we admire this masterpiece captured through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the magnificence and majesty that surrounded King James II during his reign over England.
