A landscape painting of St James’s Park. Beyond the park can be seen part of Henry VIII's Palace of Whitehall, namely the Banqueting House, the Holbein Gate and the Tilt Yard Stairs.

From the attitudes and grouping of the figures in the foreground, it is possible that the foremost figure with a covered head is that of Charles II.
