Commissioned in 1630, the statue of King Charles I which now stands in Trafalgar Square, London, was sculpted by Hubert Le Sueur and intended for the 1st Earl of Portland’s new gardens at Mortlake Park, Roehampton. Charles I was King of England, Scotland and Ireland between 1625 and 1649. He is mostly remembered for his conflicts with parliament which led to the English Civil Wars (1642–51).
