EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning full-length portrait depicts King Charles III of Spain, also known as Don Carlos, King of Naples, in the prime of his life during his reign from 1759 to 1788. Painted by the renowned German artist Anton Raphael Mengs between 1765 and 1766, the portrait showcases the monarch's regal attire, adorned with an ermine-trimmed mantle, a coat of arms on his chest, and a decorative sash. The King's clothing, reminiscent of the Rococo era, is richly colored and intricately detailed, reflecting the grandeur and opulence of the Spanish court. The portrait is set against a plain background, allowing the King's apparel and the intricate details of the heraldic elements to take center stage. The artist masterfully captures the King's serious expression, conveying a sense of authority and wisdom. The portrait is a testament to the artistic and cultural heritage of the 18th century, showcasing the fusion of German, Danish, and Spanish influences that characterized the era. The painting, now housed in the National Gallery of Denmark, is an important addition to the gallery's collection of European art. It provides a glimpse into the fashion and artistic trends of the time, as well as a glimpse into the life of a monarch who ruled over multiple European territories. The portrait continues to captivate viewers with its intricate details, vibrant colors, and the timeless allure of royalty.
