Although in Ombersley inventories the sitter has traditionally been identified as Prince Charles, later Charles II, the painting is more likely to date from the late 1640s, when the Prince would have been in his late teens. The costume is typical of this period; the young boy wears expensive riding clothes of a fashion that was worn throughout Europe.
