First look at coronation art commissioned by the King
The Independent
|May 05, 2025
A series of artworks commissioned by King Charles to commemorate his coronation weekend have been unveiled, offering a unique perspective on the historic event ahead of the release of official portraits.
The collection, created by five artists, captures key moments ranging from the grandeur of the Gold State Coach procession to the intimate atmosphere within Westminster Abbey.
Four of the commissioned artists are alumni of the King's Royal Drawing School. Fraser Scarfe documented the scenes outside Buckingham Palace, while Gideon Summerfield focused on the crowds gathered in Trafalgar Square.
Inside Westminster Abbey, Phoebe Stannard captured the solemnity of the coronation ceremony itself.
