About Charles I, King of England, from Three Angles

The artwork “Charles I, King of England, from Three Angles” is an oil on canvas painting created in 1636 by the artist Anthony van Dyck, a prominent figure in the Baroque art movement. Despite the indicated genre being “sculpture,” this is actually a painting that captures the likeness of Charles I from three different perspectives.

However, the image provided does not match the described artwork. Instead, this image appears to be a photograph of an actual sculpture, not a painting. The sculpture showcases a figure that looks like a European male with curly hair, a prominent mustache, and a goatee, wearing a draped garment that suggests a high status or regal bearing. The figure is adorned with some sort of medallion, indicating possibly a coat of arms or personal emblem. The style of the hair and clothing could place this sculpture in a similar time period to when Charles I lived, but without more context, it’s difficult to confirm its identity or origin.
