Charles II (1630-1685), king of England, Scotland and Ireland, 1660 to 1685. Following the execution of his father Charles I, he was forced into exile but returned with the Restoration of the monarchy in 1660 (as alluded to be the vignette below his coat of arms, showing his triumphant return to London). One of few engravings by Peter Williamson (1662-80, fl.), engraver connected with the better-known David Loggan. The spelling of his name here suggests Dutch origins.
