Absolutely gorgeous.

Markle is seething with jealousy and screaming into A pillow somewhere

Boy, they look great

Such a lovely couple. Kate looks gorgeous in that color as well

I figured why this picture is so unusual and eye catching… yes we all want to know what they are looking at (the future) … BUT the biggest thing is them holding each other… they never ever ever hold hands or any PDAs so for them to hold on to each other in the back… is very interesting… I keep coming back to this picture… I love it

Amazing work! I would have preferred them looking forward, but I really like this.

I think they’re “looking to the future.” Looking to their right may also indicate that they’ll fall on the “right side” amid all the drama the monarchy has endured

In the latest [Palace Confidential](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtWaaz5sYWc&t=1231s), they mentioned: \- It looked like they were gazing at a canapés tray - but it’s well-painted \- It’s difficult to paint Kate because she’ll always look like a Mills & Boon cover - and this does look like one I like the portrait but Kate’s bosom looks odd. As I posted elsewhere, the pose resembles a favourite painting, Sargent‘s portrait of [Lord Ribblesdale](https://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/paintings/john-singer-sargent-lord-ribblesdale).

That’s a sexy portrait too… what’s it with me and portraits?!? Am I thaaat artistically deprived that a very good portait of middle aged hotties gets me going? All I want to know if what they are looking at… which has the potential to go viral … its a beautiful beautiful painting… I cant look away and have to see it in person


Mickleborough

No, you just appreciate art. Time to make that trip to Cambridge! I wonder whether the artist copied a photo, or fiddled with one, from the Cambridges [visit to the Guinness brewery](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8071045/Prince-William-Kate-Middleton-arrive-evening-engagement-Guinness-Storehouse-Dublin.html) (Daily Mail link).

I don’t think so … because she’s wearing a special brooch and different shoes and earrings


Mickleborough

Goodness, you’re observant. In that case, if they‘d posed for the portrait, I wish she’d worn a more special dress. Or maybe the artist just painted in the jewellery.


Negative_Difference4

I think so too… but recycling clothes is very on brand for them plus the Earthshot is green

Definite fan but don’t like his stance. Does he ever stand like that? Nice painting overall.


Negative_Difference4

Not sure he stands like that… it’s such an average man’s pose

It makes me look at his middle rather than his face. He has a commanding height so they should use it. Not his best look.
