@17thCenturyLady Sir John Cotton Showing his Mantuan Horses to Charles II at Newmarket (unknown artist, c1670, National Horse Racing Museum).
Charles loved horse racing; he restored the palace and stables at Newmarket and founded race meetings there

@17thCenturyLady There's an exciting project to reconstruct the Lenox, a 70-gun third rater built in 1678 in Deptford. Can you imagine sailing in a full-size replica Restoration ship of the line?

@17thCenturyLady Fubbs the yacht was scrapped in 1781, of course; Madam Carwell wasn't scrapped by Charles II, but remained in high favour until his death.
She returned to France and died in Paris on 14 November 1734, aged 85.

@17thCenturyLady I always love Charles II's yacht Fubbs, named for the plumptastic Louise de Kerouaille. Designed by Phineas Pett and built in 1682 at Greenwich, Fubbs was ketch-rigged and underwent several rebuilds. She was scrapped in 1781

Immerse yourself in the 1620s and 1630s at the Rubens House in Antwerp. Rubens designed the portico and adjacent studio where he painted many of his works, assisted by the young Van Dyck before he left for London in 1621. #StuartsSaturday
@17thCenturyLady Two marriage portraits, Van Dyck school & by Lely. 1. Paul, 2nd Viscount Bayning with wife Penelope. 2. Daughter Anne was 1st wife of Aubrey de Vere, 20th Earl of Oxford. When he was confined to the Tower as a Royalist spy, devoted Anne joined him & died there. #StuartsSaturday
@17thCenturyLady @stuartparties @stuartsonline @RoyalStuartSoc @MuseumCromwell @cheapsellotape @ColemanDennehy @LeandadeLisle @jdmccafferty @kristianjmartin @RestorationHat Charles II and his brother loved sailing. The King named one of his yachts Fubbs ('chubby'), his nickname for Louise de Kerouaille. Despite its name it was fast😏
Here are Fubbs the ketch-rigged yacht (with the Katherine) and Fubbs the mistress

@17thCenturyLady @stuartparties @stuartsonline @RoyalStuartSoc @MuseumCromwell @cheapsellotape @ColemanDennehy @LeandadeLisle @jdmccafferty @kristianjmartin @RestorationHat Young Charles. He was an unusually large baby (his poor, small, mother!) and dark.

The Monarch's Way walking challenge brings this home. It's *615 miles* long. 🤯 #StuartsSaturday https://t.co/G9GpQJFQV0
@17thCenturyLady @jdmccafferty @cheapsellotape @MuseumCromwell @ColemanDennehy @CryssaBazos @RoyalStuartSoc @EnglishCivilWar Masques! Charles I and Henrietta Maria continued the tradition, when circumstances allowed, and appeared in some (not to universal approval). The Banqueting House was the ideal setting; somewhat ironically, with hindsight
