London. After the coronation of King Charles III. (74) and Queen Camilla (75), the palace published official photos of the newlyweds and a group photo. The official coronation portrait shows Charles in full formal attire, seated on the throne at Buckingham Palace. He holds the orb and scepter in his hands and wears the Imperial State Crown on his head. A purple ermine cloak hangs over the back of the throne. He looks inquiringly at the camera. The photo should go down in history: the photo opposite his mother is considered almost iconic.

The royal couple thanks the helpers and revelers
The newly crowned king and his wife thanked all the helpers and revelers at the end of the long coronation weekend in Great Britain. “Knowing we have your support behind you and feeling your goodwill in so many different ways has been the best coronation gift ever,” Charles wrote in a letter published Monday evening.
He and Camilla wanted to thank everyone who made this event so special – “especially the countless people who have given their time and dedication to ensuring that celebrations in London, Windsor and elsewhere are as joyful, safe and enjoyable as possible”. The King also personally thanked everyone who celebrated at home, at street festivals, or participated in the nationwide volunteer drive.
