| Hendrick Cornelisz Vroom Return of the Fleet in 1623 with Charles, Prince of Wales ca. 1623-30 oil on canvas (acquired from an unknown source by Charles I) Royal Collection, Great Britain |
"In 1623 when still Prince of Wales, Charles I made an unannounced visit to Madrid to seek the hand in marriage of the King of Spain's daughter, the Infanta Maria. He returned later in the year empty-handed. This painting is intended to look on the bright side of this episode by celebrating the Prince's safe return. The fleet has just reached Portsmouth, which they did on 5 October 1623. The fort on the right fires a welcome salute. The 'Prince Royal' leads, flying the Royal Standard, followed by other named ships."
