Original – The painting was executed in 1635 or 1636, and it was a kind of a painted documentary, created as a reference work for the Italian sculptor Gian Lorenzo Bernini who sculpted a marble bust after this painting.[1] The colours of the costumes and pattern of the lace collars are different in each portrait, but the blue Order of the Garter is present in all three.

Reason

Oil painting of Charles I of England by Flemish artist Sir Anthony Van Dyck, showing the King from three viewpoints, profile, front and semi-profile. The painting is currently part of the Royal Collection of the British Royal Family.
