Arrival of Charles II, King of England, in Rotterdam, 24 May 1660

description

Summary

As a prince Charles was forced to live in exile for a long time because in England, his homeland, his father had been beheaded and the monarchy abolished. However, the monarchy was restored in 1660: the parliament in London summoned him to return as King Charles II. On this triumphal journey from Breda to London he stopped off in Rotterdam. We see him on the state yacht in the middle being honoured by
many burghers and cannon salutes.

Set of images depicting various harbors, ports, and piers together with ships, fishing and sailing boats, and all types of haven-like places and views. All large image sets on Picryl.com are made in two steps: First, we picked a set to train AI vision to recognize the feature, and after that, we ran all 25M+ images in our database through an image recognition machine. As usual, all media in the collection belong to the public domain. There is no limitation on the dataset usage - educational, scientific, or commercial.
