Charles D, a man of many faces and eras. From the Battle of Agincourt in 1773 to the late 15th century scenes captured by Robinet Testard, his presence is felt throughout history. In William Walker's creation, we see Charles D amidst the chaos and bravery of war, leaving an indelible mark on the battlefield. Moving forward in time, we encounter a portrait of Morrison Remick "Mott" Waite before 1888.

In October they can be seen feeding pigs on acorns - a humble task that reflects his connection to nature and agricultural practices. In September, an ill-matched couple portrays another facet of Charles D's existence - perhaps hinting at complicated relationships or societal expectations he navigated with grace. July brings us to threshing - hard work that demonstrates Charles D's dedication to labor and ensuring sustenance for his people. March finds him diligently working in vineyards - showcasing his involvement in viticulture and appreciation for fine wine production. Spinning takes center stage in February as Charles D embraces craftsmanship and textile arts within his realm. June sees him mowing fields under the scorching sun - sweat dripping down his brow as he ensures bountiful harvests for all who depend on him. April unveils lovers entwined within a garden setting; here lies evidence that despite responsibilities weighing heavily upon him, love still found its way into Charles D's heart.
