Ich habe mir ein bissle für #54books Gedanken über das außergewöhnliche Porträt von König Karl III von Jonathan Yeo gemacht. Das, wie ich finde, seine Zwecke sehr gut erfüllt.

King Charles III unveiled his first completed portrait since the coronation, a vivid image in reds depicting the monarch in the uniform of the Welsh Guards. The unveiling of the portrait by Jonathan Yeo took place at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday. The king is shown with his hands clasped atop the hilt of his sword and a butterfly flitting above his right shoulder.
I am interpreting this #Portrait as the figurehead of the British Empire completely engulfed in the blood spilled in the name of the monarch of England. Only his 'respectable' face stands apart, drawing your attention away from the whole picture which is only massacre.
