A Symbolic Tribute to His Half-Century of Service

Buckingham Palace has unveiled the first official portrait of King Charles III since his coronation, capturing the monarch in the ceremonial red uniform of the Welsh Guards. The portrait, a poignant symbol of his 50-year association with the regiment, is a timeless depiction of royal duty.

King Charles and Queen Camilla pose regally in the portrait, their expressions reflecting the weight of their responsibilities. The King's uniform is adorned with intricate details, showcasing his long-standing affiliation with the Welsh Guards. The portrait, painted by esteemed artist Paul Yeo, captures the essence of the Royal Family's transition into a new era.

Yeo's brushstrokes skillfully immortalize the moment, having commenced work on the portrait over a year ago, long before Charles ascended to the throne. The portrait will undoubtedly become an enduring symbol of King Charles III's reign.
