About the piece
Produced circa 1825 by the studio of François Gérard, this stately oil portrait captures King Charles X of France in his full coronation splendor. The king is depicted in a commanding stance, draped in heavy velvet robes embroidered with the fleur-de-lis and lined with ermine, with the French crown and scepter prominently displayed on a velvet cushion beside him.
