Report!! The British royal family's invitation failed, and it was ridiculed by the whole world!
It's funny to say that on Tuesday, King Charles unveiled an oil painting by Jonathan Young at Buckingham Palace.
In theory, this is Charles' first official portrait since his coronation a little more than a year ago, and it is a milestone.
Expectant, Charles reached out to untie the ribbon and lifted the curtain that covered the painting......
Then the audience was stunned.
After a while, there was an awkward and polite, sparse applause......
emmm…… How to say it.
The painting began in June 2021, when Charles was still the Prince of Wales.
In the portrait, Charles has a solemn expression and looks at the comer.
Judging from the facial expressions of the characters, the painter of this painting is worthy of being a "court painter", very skilled, and guaranteed by the nine clans.
However, what is going on with this big red background?!!
Obviously, the unveiling of this painting caused a lot of controversy and ridicule.
Many people commented very negatively about this portrait and sprayed it directly......
Some people feel that it looks like Charles is going to hell......
"He looks like he's ...... content from the depths of hell"
"Satan, is that you?"
"Looks like Dante's Divine Comedy Inferno."
"Looks like he's going to hell."
Others say that it looks like the ruler of hell......
"Is this a joke? The painting is terrible. My 9-year-olds can draw better than that. He looks like the villain in DND."
"This portrait is that he will bathe in blood."
Or the reign of the British royal family is in dire straits......
"It looks like a perfect picture to mark the end of a vicious and brutal imperial monarchy. It's poetic. ”
"It's so strange to literally fall into a sea of fire."
"They're finally out of hiding, welcome to the end times."
There is also typical British humor......
"Meghan's unsellable jam has found a new purpose."
"His head floated in a sea of blood and looked more like Charles I than Charles III."
(Charles's official name is Charles III, and Charles I is the only king in English history to be guillotined by Parliament)
"Has this been splashed with paint by that crazy environmental group?"
There are also people who are more damaged, and they turned out what he said before......
"He said before that he wanted to be Camilla's tampon...... Now he's frozen like this forever. ”
"Congratulations! You're finally a tampon! ”
"Princess Diana is working hard in the spirit of heaven......"
This incident is a little embarrassing, and it is estimated that Charles is also scolding his mother in his heart, but on the surface, he has to shake hands with the painter with a smile.
It is said that Charles saw it once when he was two-thirds of the way through the painting. (I don't know if I saw it when I didn't draw the background after drawing the characters)
But even so, when Charles pulled the ribbon, he still shouted 'Christ Swan!' '
"I've been wondering what this portrait is going to look like, and it's really ...... done," he says Amazing. ”
The painter asks, "Has it changed a lot since you last saw it?" ”
Charles replied, "It's changed...... You've made a lot of messing around here, haven't you? ”
It is also a tradition that the British royal family has had portraits throughout the ages.
Previous portraits of monarchs looked like this
(This is Henry VIII, the one with six wives)
such
(This is Charles I, who lost his head)
The queen has also had formal portraits, and this one from her youth looks feminine and temperamental.
And this one of the old people is more majestic and very spiritual.
I guess Charles can't figure it out, why did he overturn when he got here?
Obviously, this artist is also a big name, and he has painted many celebrities before, including Camilla and Prince Philip, and he hasn't overturned!
After the completion of the painting, the artist also triumphantly explained that he wanted to break with tradition in this creation and make the portrait more "dynamic and contemporary".
So he used a striking red color and had a butterfly rest on Charles's shoulder, symbolizing metamorphosis and rebirth.
"When I started this project, His Majesty the King was still His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, and like the butterfly I painted hovering over his shoulder, the portrait evolved with the change of identity."
"If this is considered treason, I can really pay it back with my head, which is a proper way for a portraitist to die – cut off their heads!"
To make matters worse, Charles could not burn the portrait of the overturned car as Churchill did back then, when it had not happened.
(British painter Graham Sutherland's 1954 oil painting for Churchill's 80th birthday was so disgusted by Churchill that his wife burned it a few months after receiving it.) ）
Because, the painting will hang in the gallery gallery of London's financial district, which houses galleries of monarchs from King George III to Queen Victoria......
It is estimated that Charles, who is being treated for cancer, is quite disturbing to watch......
Recently, Charles is really tired and miserable.
The whole royal family is in a lot of trouble, and it is necessary for this 75-year-old man who is being treated for cancer to show up everywhere and fulfill his royal duties.
Since he announced in February that he had been diagnosed with cancer, the king's health has been both good news and relatively brief, and he is only known to be undergoing an undisclosed cancer treatment.
Recently, however, during a visit to the cancer center, he said that the "treatment diagnosis was shocking" and revealed that he had lost his sense of taste during treatment......
In addition, there are a lot of things he has to worry about.
For example, his youngest son, Prince Harry.
It was previously reported that Prince Harry would return to the UK this time, and the father and son would meet again, and it had even been publicized in the British media through the mouth of "sources......
As a result, Charles didn't see him.
A lot of the British media were stunned.
Why didn't Charles see Harry?
A royal friend explained: "There is no need for drama in his life, and over the past few years, Harry and Meghan have brought nothing but worry to him and his family. ”
There is another person who said:
It may sound strange, but after being diagnosed with cancer, the king did want to open it, knowing that he had waited decades to become a king, and now there was not much time left...... Therefore, he is determined to do everything in his power to make changes as soon as possible. ”
"Frankly, Harry and Meghan are painful distractions that he can't get rid of."
However, even if you "break away" the younger son's family, you can't break away from the eldest son of the crown prince! So lately he has been paying attention to William, and he has been given a new military title by participating in events together.
On William and Kate's side, in addition to Kate's cancer that has not appeared for a long time, there is also a big "hidden danger", that is, the rumored Prince William's scandalous lover Rose.
In the previous Xiaosan turmoil, Ross disappeared for two months and did not show up to avoid the limelight.
Recently, there was an explosive news: Camilla and Rose appeared at the British Equestrian Festival, had a good conversation, and were photographed by the media.
Camilla, who is the top junior in the junior position, met William's "junior mistress" and had a good chat?
British: Huh? Yes?? Isn't that testing our mouths?
Many British netizens are saying that this is the mother-in-law Camilla teaching Rose how to ascend to the throne, paving the way for her to become queen in the future, and may even completely replicate Diana's route......
After all, Kate hasn't been seen by the public since December 28, 2023.
There were sightings, but the royal family didn't admit that it was her, and the photos were mushy.
There were speeches, but no one knew if it was said by Kate herself.
There is a video, but now there are also many people who suspect that this video is AI-generated or face-swapped.
After all, it has been disappearing for half a year, and together with Charlotte and Louie, they haven't appeared until now, which is really outrageous......
The other day, William was asked about Kate's condition, and William's reply said, "She's fine, thank you." ”
On Twitter, however, the rumors have grown to the point of being vegetative......
On May 12, a Twitter user claimed that Kate had been "in a vegetative state for months."
Of course, there is no official confirmation or news report on this matter, and it is purely a rumor.
However, the conclusive expression still caused a sensation, and even on Youtube and Facebook, there was similar news......
Looking back at Charles's portrait now, it feels somewhat appropriate - the British royal family is indeed in chaos now.
Charles's health, Harry's controversy with Meghan, and Kate's "disappearance" have all put the royal family under tremendous pressure......
It's really a sea of fire......
