New Royal portraits have been unveiled along with a personal message from His Majesty King Charles III tonight (Monday). The monarch called the nation’s support throughout the weekend's historic celebrations “the greatest possible coronation gift”.
The King and Queen have also pledged to rededicate their lives to service. As the weekend of festivities came to a close, Charles issued a written message, saying: “We thank you, each and every one.”
Traditional official portraits show the King was captured in his full regalia. He is seen wearing the Imperial State Crown, holding the Orb and Sceptre with Cross, and dressed in his regal purple tunic and Robe of Estate, and in one image seated on a Throne Chair in the Throne Room at Buckingham Palace.
