James II (1633-1701)

A full-length portrait to the left showing James in his ducal robes, presumably worn for the coronation of Charles II. He wears a brown, full-bottomed wig, with his right hand at his breast; his coronet rests on a table in the left of the picture. This is a copy of the original.
