The British King, Charles III has marked his coronation with a new photograph of himself and his two heirs.
The picture of Charles, alongside the Prince of Wales and Prince George, was taken in Buckingham Palaces throne room on the day he was crowned.
The King sits in the centre on one of a pair of 1902 throne chairs which were made for the future King George V and Queen Mary for use at the coronation of King Edward VII and also used in the background of the 1937 coronation of King George VI.
Charles and Queen Camilla used the throne chairs at Westminster Hall to receive addresses from both Houses of Parliament last year.
The King is pictured wearing the Robe of Estate and the Imperial State Crown, and holding the Sovereigns Orb and Sovereigns Sceptre with Cross.
In the photograph, William and George are stood either side of the King and smiling.
Another picture was released on Friday, showing Charles and Camilla with their Pages of Honour and Ladies in Attendance.
