Charles X in His Coronation Robes
A standing king in a jeweled ermine-trimmed mantle and tall crown holds a scepter in one hand and a hand of justice-style staff in the other, before a pale draped setting with columns. The watercolor over graphite is softly rendered in pinks, golds and creams, with the figure's regal pose centered and the robe spreading across the floor.
