ON A NIGHT OF EMOTIONAL MEMORIES HIS MAJESTY HONOURS HIS MOTHER AT THE ROYAL ALBERT HALL
HELLO! UK
|November 27, 2023
It was a particularly poignant moment when the King unveiled a statue of his beloved mother as he marked Remembrance weekend.
Arriving at London’s Royal Albert Hall for the annual Festival of Remembrance, His Majesty pulled a yellow rope to open two red velvet curtains, revealing a lifesize bronze statue of Elizabeth II. His eyes filled with tears as he briefly looked up to the artwork.
A few minutes before, his wife Camilla had unveiled a bronze statue of her father-in-law Prince Philip.
The sculptures, by artist Poppy Field, were commissioned as part of the building’s 150th anniversary to commemorate the royal couple’s many visits to the concert hall. Similar works, showing Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, were also unveiled.
Elizabeth II first went to the Royal Albert Hall as an eight-year-old girl in 1934 and made the last of her 130 visits there in 2019.
