King Charles II Greetings Card

Regular price £4.00

Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:

King Charles II NPG 4691

© National Portrait Gallery, London

attributed to Thomas Hawker

This portrait of Charles II shows him towards the end of his life, looking rather lascivious and a little glum. It is not a particularly attractive image but an important one, assumed to have been painted by the minor artist Thomas (or Edward) Hawker, on the basis of a comparison with a portrait of the 1st Duke of Grafton at Euston Hall in Suffolk.

Card size: 125mm x 175mm

Images are printed in their original proportions, within a white border.
