About the piece
Painted in 1913 by Fred Howard Michael after the original by Samuel Luke Fildes, this formal portrait captures King George V in full state robes. Clad in ermine and red velvet, the monarch stands with a dignified presence against a rich, atmospheric backdrop, with the Imperial State Crown resting upon a velvet cushion to his side.
