[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 view of George IV's extravagant banquet held at Westminster hall after his coronation.

A temporary triumphal arch was erected at the north end of the hall in the style of a medieval castle. In accordance with the vogue for Romanticism and with his own taste for flamboyant clothes, George insisted that the participants should dress in Tudor and Stuart period costumes.

Sandford worked for two years with his fellow herald Gregory King to produce this record of the coronation rituals, which included twenty-seven lavish engravings of the sumptuous feasts, processions and fireworks in a style previously unseen in the British Isles.
