EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back to the carefree court of King Charles II in 17th century Britain, during the 1660s. The King, dressed in rich robes and adorned with the Order of the Garter, sits amongst an array of merriment and revelry. The scene is set in a grand hall, with ornate columns and intricate plasterwork adorning the walls. The King's eyes are fixed on the enchanting Lady Castlemaine, who playfully holds a fan and engages in conversation with him. Lady Castlemaine, known for her beauty and charm, was a favorite of King Charles II and held a significant influence over him. Her presence at court was a source of controversy, as she was married to the Earl of Castlemaine, yet her relationship with the King was an open secret. Despite this, the King's court was known for its social scenes of indulgence and pleasure, a stark contrast to the political turmoil and civil war that had plagued Britain in the previous decades. The King's court was a place of respite and enjoyment, where the elite of society could come together to celebrate and indulge in the finer things in life. The scene depicted in this photograph is just one example of the many social gatherings that took place during this time, where the cares of the world were momentarily forgotten, and the focus was on enjoyment and pleasure. This photograph, from Mary Evans Picture Library, provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering us a glimpse into the social and political landscape of 17th century Britain, and the court of King Charles II in particular. It is a reminder of a time when the cares of the world were momentarily set aside, and the focus was on enjoyment, pleasure, and the simple joys of life.
