Hendrik Danckerts after Adriaen Hanneman

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man in a half-length view. He is posed slightly turned with his head facing forward, revealing long, wavy dark hair, a prominent nose, and a slight mustache. He wears ornate attire, including a detailed garment with patterns and a sash. The man is set in an oval frame with decorative borders and the background is also intricately designed. The caption below labels him as Carolus II, or Charles II of Britain.
