Takes Van Dyck’s place at court
Anthony van Dyck, court painter to Charles I, died in 1641, and Lely succeeded him as the most fashionable portrait artist in England. In the service of Lord Northumberland he copied some of Van Dyck’s paintings.

The Restoration: Lely at the court of Charles II
With the return of the monarchy Lely became a court painter again: in 1661 Charles II appointed him Principal Painter in Ordinary with a stipend of £200 a year, the same as van Dyck had enjoyed in the previous Stuart reign. After the Restoration his “rather cold Restoration style”, in keeping with the taste of the age, took shape.
