About the piece
This grand portrait by John Singer Sargent captures Charles Stewart, 6th Marquess of Londonderry, during the 1902 coronation of King Edward VII. Dressed in the rich textures of ermine and velvet robes, he commands the scene with the Great Sword of State, while his page, Mr. W. C. Beaumont, stands in the shadows holding a coronet.
