The Civil War in Spain: Don Carlos and his staff, 1873. Portrait of '...the Carlist Pretender now at the head of the insurrection in Spain, accompanied by his staff of officers...The Prince who claims to be King of Spain is seated in the centre of this group; Palacio is at his left hand; Polo, the brother-in-law of Don Carlos, is on his right hand; Marichalar stands in the middle...This Prince, Charles VII., who is known by the name of Don Carlos, is a tall young man of athletic build, with manners so affable and princely that seeing him in a drawing-room you would involuntarily exclaim, "Long live the King!" His glance is at the same time mild and energetic, and his conversation proves the correctness of his judgment. He knows the Latin classics thoroughly, and has followed the usual courses of philosophy and mathematics. He speaks fluently Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, and German, and is tolerably well acquainted with English. He is an excellent horseman, and excels in all bodily exercises'. From "Illustrated London News", 1873.
