"King Charles I in Garter Robes" is a notable oil painting by Sir Anthony van Dyck, a Flemish Baroque artist who became the leading court painter in England under King Charles I. The painting, created circa 1635, is one of the most iconic representations of the English monarch, showcasing him in the full regalia of the Order of the Garter, the most senior order of knighthood in the British honours system.

The artwork is a prime example of Van Dyck's mastery in portraiture, capturing the elegance and dignity of the king. Charles I is depicted standing in a stately pose, wearing the opulent blue Garter mantle, with the Garter Star on his left chest, and the Lesser George, a jeweled badge depicting St. George slaying the dragon, hanging from a gold chain. His right hand rests on a walking stick, while his left hand holds the brim of his black hat adorned with an ostrich feather, a symbol of the king's refined taste and royal status.

The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context. Charles I's reign was marked by religious and political strife, culminating in the English Civil War and his eventual execution in 1649. Van Dyck's portrayal of the king in his Garter Robes, however, immortalizes Charles I in a moment of regal poise and splendor, reflecting the ideal of kingship that he aspired to project.

"King Charles I in Garter Robes" is held in high esteem among the oeuvre of Van Dyck's royal portraits and remains a key work for understanding the visual culture of the English court in the early 17th century. The painting is a testament to the artist's influence on British portraiture, setting a standard for elegance and sophistication that would endure for centuries.
