For the formal coronation photos, the reigning monarch, King Charles III, posed alongside the heirs apparent to the British regal throne.
The coronation of King Charles III, which took place at Westminster Abbey, is coming up in a week. For the people of the United Kingdom, it will be a momentous occasion since it will mark the end of a long wait of 70 years since Queen Elizabeth II was crowned. Numerous dignitaries attended the banquet for this coronation dressed to the nines, impressing everyone with their dapper and distinctive ensembles that garnered a lot of attention.
The coronation was carried out by Buckingham Palace, which was also in charge of uploading all the photos that were shot on this day and of publishing the official photos of the coronation with Prince William and Prince George, the next two heirs to the throne.
Hugo Burnand was the photographer who got royal approval for the task of shooting the official images, just as he was in charge of doing so for the current king and queen in 2005 and the Prince and Princess of Wales in 2011 according to the Tiempox website:
“I felt it was important to take this photo. I did a lot of research in the archives of past coronations and didn’t see any previous images of the line of succession. While we have seen images of the Queen, Prince Charles and Prince William and Prince George, we have never seen them. I have seen them in the throne room with all the regalia,” Hugo said.
The ability of the author to capture the essence of the three people in one image astounded everyone, and as a result, this image will always be preserved in the palace’s historical photo collection.
