King Charles III and Queen Camilla Unveil Coronation Portraits

On May 6, 2025, Buckingham Palace unveiled the official coronation portraits of the reigning monarch and his consort to commemorate their two years on the throne.
The portraits were commissioned soon after King Charles III and Queen Camilla's coronation at Westminster Abbey on May 6, 2023, which followed the passing of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022.
Charles' portrait, by Peter Kuhfeld, shows him in his Robe of State beside the Imperial State Crown with a backdrop of St James's Palace Throne Room, while Paul Benney's portrait of Camilla emphasizes her humanity and empathy.
The portraits will be displayed in London's National Gallery until June 5, 2025, after which they will be relocated to their permanent residence in the Throne Room of Buckingham Palace.
These paintings continue a 400-year royal tradition and serve as defining images of sovereignty, completed while Charles underwent cancer treatment diagnosed about ten months after his coronation.
