The new portrait gives a relaxed family atmosphere and the children look very cute. :) However, I'm not liking the dark background. But by looking at the artist's other portraits of Queen Margarethe and Prince Henrik, you can see that they also have dark backgrounds - I guess that's the artist's style.

I absolutely hate this portrait. It looks like the mock-up for a cover of Stephen King's latest novel "Terror at Marselisborg Palace," with a bonus excerpt:

Princess Isabella, the poor girl always sitting alone in the corner, was clearly overshadowed by her brother, the heir. Neglected by her nanny, she- in her pristine velvet dress- would wander into the cold woods and bathe in mud, simply to prove she did exist, titles be damned.

I absolutely agree, the backlight on that child in the front makes him look evil and spooky...  :hide:

QuoteThe New Danish Royal Family Portrait Is Super Creepy
We're not saying "All Hail the Satanic overlords," but we're also not not saying that.

The New Danish Royal Family Portrait Is Super Creepy

Creepy is pretty much the consensus. It is like a V.C. Andrews horror novel cover [ The Complete V.C. Andrews Library: Seeds of Yesterday Novel Graphics ].

The kid in the middle could look less Damien like from The Omen. :thumbsdown:

QuotePrincess Mary Portrait Derided

Royal portraits are consistent on one measure alone. They are rarely flattering to the royal they portray and are deeply divisive.

And so it is with artist Thomas Kluge's portrait of the Danish Royal Family which has been variously described as creepy, Gothic, shadowy and a horror film poster.

Kluge's portrait of the Danish royal family reminds me of The Addams Family, tweeted one objector. Awful and grim said another.

QuoteThe New Danish Royal Family Portrait Is Super Creepy

The new portrait of the Danish royal family is a little…dark. The painting by artist Thomas Kluge was unveiled over the weekend as part of an exhibition of royal portraits.

In Kluge’s painting the royal couple is depicted in a gilt rococo settee surrounded by their sons, daughters-in-law and grandchildren, all in everyday clothing. The present and future monarchs, H.M. The Queen, T.R.H. The Crown Prince and Prince Christian, all make eye contact with us, while their family members are portrayed in their own universe, unprovoked by the gaze of the spectator. The children are at play with the exception of the upright and severe Prince Christian who seems aware of his future responsibilities.

QuoteTHOMAS WISE
"There remains only the true man"

The painter Thomas Kluge glossed over nothing. Not even when he portrays the Danish royal family
