King Charles today hailed the migrants who came to Britain from the Caribbean as part of the Windrush generation as "very special" as he unveiled 10 portraits celebrating their lives at Buckingham Palace.
Charles commissioned the portraits, all by black artists, to pay a "heartfelt tribute to the role they have played in our nation's story".
The 10 sitters, most in their nineties, attended a reception hosted by the King and Queen Camilla at the palace this afternoon along with their families and the artists who immortalised them.
