"Charles I in Three Positions," also known as "Triple Portrait of Charles I," is a celebrated oil painting by Flemish artist Sir Anthony van Dyck, created in 1635 or 1636. This work is notable for its unique composition, depicting King Charles I of England from three different angles: left profile, full face, and right profile. The painting was intended to serve as a reference for the Italian sculptor Gian Lorenzo Bernini to create a marble bust of the king without having seen him in person. The bust, unfortunately, was destroyed in a fire in the 18th century, but Van Dyck's painting remains an important historical artifact.

The painting is a masterful display of Van Dyck's skill in portraiture, capturing the dignity and regal bearing of the monarch. Each of the three positions of Charles I's head is rendered with meticulous attention to detail, from the texture of his hair and lace collar to the subtle expressions that convey his royal demeanor. The work is also significant for its influence on royal portraiture, setting a precedent for the representation of monarchy with a sense of majesty and elegance.

"Charles I in Three Positions" is housed in the Royal Collection and is part of the collection at Windsor Castle. The painting is not only a testament to Van Dyck's artistic genius but also provides a fascinating insight into the political and cultural milieu of 17th-century England. As a historical document, it reflects the relationship between the king and his court painter, and more broadly, the role of art in the service of monarchy and statecraft.
