[Portrait of Charles II with procession (through the Hague?) behind] Karel Stuart de Tweede, Koningk van Groot Britangie, Vranckrijck, Schotland en Yrlandt.
[Anon., c.1660]
Engraving, sheet 400 x 530mm (15¾ x 20¾"). Trimmed; crease through centre. Part of Broadside.
Dutch print presumably made to commemorate the restoration of Charles II in 1660. A number of prints relating to the event were produced in the Netherlands, since it was there that Charles II made the declaration of Breda before travelling through Delft and the Hague en route to England. He was lavishly entertained in the Hague, and it may be this occasion that is depicted in the procession behind. If it is intended for the king's coronation procession in London, the topography seems inaccurate.

A full length portrait of Roger Monk (d.1831) in the Tudor-style uniform of the Yeoman of the Guard (Beefeaters). A London businessman, he purchased a commission in the Guards, becoming Exon (equivalent to Corporal but in the Elizabethan meaning of a commissioned officer, similar to a captain) in 1805, holding the position until his death. Monk's uniform cost over £300 and was the last of its kind to be made for officers, being too expensive for the few ceremonial occasions for its use. Monk commissioned this oil, which now hangs in the hall of the Tallow Chandlers' Company, of which Monk had been master in 1826. www.yeomenoftheguard.co.uk/roger-monk
