King Charles and Queen Camilla mark important anniversary with big reveal


Two years after their Coronation at Westminster Abbey, The King and Queen unveiled their Coronation State portraits at the National Gallery.

The two portraits are on display from 6 May to 5 June in the Central Room of the National Gallery. After that, they will be on permanent display in the Throne Room at Buckingham Palace. 

State portraits are typically full-length portraits, set in a formal setting with the Monarch in ceremonial wear. The portraits would then be disseminated around the world.

King Charles and Queen Camilla each commissioned a different artist to complete their Coronation portraits. His Majesty turned to Peter Kuhfeld, an artist that he has commissioned several times before.

King Charles had five sittings with Kuhfeld, with two in the State Apartments at St. James’s Palace. Notably, the Throne Room at St. James’s Palace is the backdrop in his portrait.

Queen Camilla commissioned Paul Benny to create her portrait. Her Majesty had six sittings total with Benny, with all of them held in the Garden Room at Clarence House. 

The paintings will join other State Portraits in the Royal Collection. The earliest state portrait in the Royal Collection is a portrait of King James I (James VI of Scotland).
