People react to King Charles's new 'quite red' portrait.

[@winall9]

Why are they so polite? Its demonic!!

[@MrPJFurey]

[@smellslikethinice1107]

Because they are British...polite and comforming, bordering on subservient.

[@cleardifference]

They gats be polite...he's their king

[@savasatmaca3147]

If you Turn the picture abside down you see that his left arm is the Horn of the devils left Face And if you do the Same picture twice upside down, you see the Devil in the middle of the two pictures. Im not joking

[@sajtheone]

King: “Just get on with the bloody portrait!” Artist: “Okay”

[@GregorSamsa000]

😭😂😭😂😭😂😭

[@MartinOReilly-mb4um]

I find it disturbing. Why? Why would you make a portrait like that which signifies blood and death? I see the spirits and wailings of destroyed people in that red. it is not a good thing.

[@everythinginbetween4440]

Mirror the image then put them together and you'll see the devil in the middle. Try it you won't belive it.

I disagree. It's a pretty good portrait. For sure, better than Freud's one of Queen Elizabeth.

Well said

[@user-sp1tu5vf3o]

He is not to be blamed for that. The power in the Parlament. The artist did not know what to do with the background. The butterfly is black. The uniform had to be red, but the red without a contrast and envolving everything is the color of Hell. So the King has been sent to Hell with no reason.

[@MocatafamulusdeSet]

@@user-sp1tu5vf3o One extremely wealthy and privileged septuagenarian, whom you've never met and will never meet, might deign to thank you for doffing your cloth cap, tugging your forelock, and obsequiously bowing and scraping in their defence, if they knew you existed. I doubt it, though.

[@withinyouwithoutyou3]

I like the style but its not really the right style for this type of portrait. And as an art student, Im not sure how all the read is supposed to represent "nature" or whatever the artist said. He looks like hes missing horns from his head.

[@DneilB007]

Thanks to climate change, “nature” is burning. It tracks.

Can the king get a refund?

stunning isn't necessarily good.

Adding pea soup green could add some nice contrast.

[@RealUlrichLeland]

I think Mr Bean must have accidentally spilled something on it, and the artist tried to style it out.

[@crouchingwombathiddenquoll5641]

Prince Charles was once recorded in a phone conversation with his then girlfriend Camila.... "One wishes one could be reincarnated as a tampax so I could be inside you completely". This portrait encapsulates that odd sentiment entirely.

[@basicplastique]

I love the portrait honestly

[@skycloud4802]

The face is good, but I do think the background colour choice was a little ghoulish. The red clothing and red background aren't distinguishable enough, so it looks like a floating head.

Well, this official portrait, nearly four years in the making, looks abit like my aunties Xmas trifle, when it was dropped on my mother's kitchen floor, about 5 decades ago. A sickly, gooey mess of raspberry jelly, sponge finger biscuits and sherry. Even our pair of German shepherds, looked at that mess and at us, and telepathically beamed dog speak, for WTF!? 🤢🤮

[@happyanand9909]

The red is quite disturbing because it reflects the more than three million dead in the Bengal famine of 1943 and the Jallianwala bagh massacre.

@happyanand9909 both events of which happened when Charles III wasn't even alive..
