King Charles unveils haunting red portrait of himself: ‘Looks like he’s in hell’



“On Tuesday, King Charles, 75, unveiled a new official portrait of himself by the artist Jonathan Yeo …

“‘Does the first painting represent all the blood on his hands?’ one commenter asked …

“Other royal watchers remarked that  the painting looks … ‘like he’s bathing in blood’ and ‘like he’s burning in hell …’”

What do you see in this portrait of King Charles?

“… [This] color is giving the distinct vibe of blood …

“ … [In] this portrait, everything except the king’s face looks as though it’s gotten a hefty dunk in some thick crimson plasma …

“[Artist Jonathan Yeo] told the BBC that the butterfly (also red) hovering near Charles’s right shoulder symbolizes ‘metamorphosis and rebirth’ …

“[Could] it also represent thousands of souls slaughtered by the British Empire, their wings beating fruitlessly against the chains of oppression? …

“Charles’s face is like a disembodied specter of death …

“Alternatively, perhaps this is an imagined depiction of King Charles rotting in hell …”

Is Charles' portrait a warning?



Professor Geraldine Johnson, Head of the History of Art Department at Oxford University said:

“‘… One does wonder … whether it was the King or Yeo who made the decision to depict a Monarch Butterfly in particular …’

“Prof Johnson added: 'Red is … a colour we associate in everyday life with warning …’”
