King Charles II of England (1630-1685), a monarch of great charm and charisma, is depicted in various portraits, from engravings to terracottas. In this engraving, Charles is shown in regal attire, wearing a lace collar, crown, and coat of arms. Another image features him in armor, reflecting his military background. Catherine of Braganza, his Portuguese queen, is also portrayed, adding a touch of international flair to the English court. Charles' reign was marked by religious and political turmoil, including the English Civil War and the Restoration of the monarchy. Despite the challenges, he issued the Royal Declaration of Indulgence in 1675, granting religious tolerance to Catholics and Dissenters. This engraving commemorates the declaration, highlighting Charles' efforts to promote peace and unity in his kingdom.
