KING CHARLES
PORTRAIT DRAWS FIERY COMPARISONS
Pits of Hell, Devil, Blood?!?
King Charles proudly unveiled the primary official portrait of himself since his coronation final yr — and let’s simply say … the web’s response is extra hearth and brimstone than royal reward.
HRH was at Buckingham Palace Tuesday with Queen Camila, the place he pulled down an enormous curtain to disclose the highly-anticipated portrait — which incorporates a fiery pink backdrop, to a lot shock from royal followers and normies in all places.
Even Charles’ most interesting Welsh Guards uniform for the portray could not distract from the actual star of the present — that daring, brash backdrop, which led to a tidal wave of on-line critiques/jokes.
One X consumer tweeted, “Who accredited King Charles III’s new portrait cuz it seems to be like he is in hell?!” Others echoed the same sentiment … saying it appeared like he’d by chance wandered into within the fiery pits of Dante’s inferno.
The truth is, you would argue the entire thing was a full-blown roast session … with some saying Charles appeared “villainous,” whereas others saying he gave the impression to be drenched in blood … some even going as far to say the entire thing appeared satanic.
Clearly, it is in all probability not the suggestions Jonathan Yeo needed after the three years it took for him to color it at his London studio — which additionally included 4 sit-downs with Charles himself.
Nonetheless, King Charles’ portrait in all its fiery glory might be on show at London’s Philip Mould Gallery for a month-long exhibit. After that, it is off to the historic Draper’s Corridor, as soon as owned by none aside from King Henry VIII himself.
Seems like this portray’s getting the royal therapy … whether or not anybody likes it or not.
