    Which actually kind of matches some of the negatives I’ve heard of King Chuckie III’s personality.

    In another color scheme, he might look kindly and wise. In this one he looks “benevolently malevolent”. The kind where he’s enslaving and killing you for your own good.

  3. Protest proof, since it looks like the anti-fur people have already gotten to it.

  4. To me, it looks like he’s fading into the background.

    Unclear if that’s a subtle statement by Charles and/or the artist about the future of the monarchy, or an acknowledgement by Charles of just how short the reign of a 75-year-old man battling cancer is likely to be, but the thought is a little sobering.
