The British royal family released a new portrait of King Charles on Saturday, June 29, in honor of Armed Forces Day
King Charles III’s new royal portrait has fans drawing pointed comparisons to Jonathan Yeo’s divisive painting.“A new portrait of The King has been released to mark Armed Forces Day. His Majesty is Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Services,” a caption on the official royal family’s Instagram read. 'The photograph features His Majesty wearing his Field Marshal No1 Full Ceremonial Frock Coat with medals, sword and decorations.
Several royal watchers immediately remarked in the comments section that the portrait was “way better” than a previous one that the monarch posed for.“Wonderful! And it’s in Classic style. I love it,” one commenter wrote on Saturday, as another called it a “fantastic picture.” Last month, Buckingham Palace unveiled a portrait of Charles painted by Yeo, 53, and commissioned by The Draper’s Company. Yeo’s painting was the king’s first official portrait since his May 2023 coronation. The picture, which is displayed at London’s Draper’s Hall, has since sparked criticism from fans about the use of the color red and overall artistic style.
