Charles I (1600-49)
View through Europeana Collections
The painting was probably begun in the second half of 1635. In his letter to Lorenzo Bernini of 17 March 1636 the King expressed the hope that Bernini would execute 'il Nostro Ritratto in Marmo, sopra quello che in un Quadro vi manderemo subiito' ('Our Portrait in Marble, after the painted portrait which we shall send to you immediately'). The bust was to be a papal present to Henrietta Maria and Urban VIII had specially arranged its creation at a time when hopes were entertained in Rome that the King might lead England back into the Roman Catholic fold.
