Portrait of James II ジェームズ2世の肖像じぇーむず2せいのしょうぞう

Description

レリーは国王の肖像画を多く手がけたが、生涯にわたって描き続けたのはジェームズ2世と最初の妻、アン・ハイドであった。レリーがジェームズの肖像画を描くようになったのは、アンの父であるクラレンドン伯爵が1660年のジェームズとアンの結婚を記念して制作を依頼したのが始まりである（スコットランドポートレートギャラリー蔵）。1666年には、ジェームズはローストフトの海戦で彼に仕えた海軍将官の肖像のシリーズをレリーに発注した。また、ジェームズはレリーの死後、ジェームズを描いたレリーによる未完の肖像画3点をレリーの工房から直接入手したとも考えられている。この肖像では、レリーはジェームズの優美さと威厳を保たせながら、彼の穏やかで凛とした表情を捉えている。
