Miami, Florida Oct 7, 2024 (Issuewire.com) - This touching childhood drawing by His Majesty, King Charles III, has been re-discovered after 40 years and will be a cornerstone lot in House of Cravens upcoming Palm Beach Modern Art + Design Auction on Thursday, October 24, 2024, at 7:00 PM EST. This original sketch was produced by a young Charles around 195355, when he was five or six years old for Queen Elizabeth II. This early crayon and pencil drawing by King Charles includes a pair of carmine bee-eater birds, signed Charles. This work of art was given to Henry Maule to support his work in documenting the life of the Royal Family, which included writing All The Queens Children. Having remained tucked away for more than 40 years since his death in 1981, the time has now come for others to enjoy and gain fresh insight into the lives of the British Royal Family.
Jennifer N. Higgins, House of Craven's President and Auctioneer said: "House of Craven is very pleased to have this unique opportunity to showcase a piece of highly exclusive royal memorabilia for our clients. She added, "Along with his interest in environmentalism and advocacy for organic farming, The King is an avid watercolorist, and this is a poignant and revealing work of art.
King Charles III, formerly known as The Prince of Wales, became King on the death of his mother Queen Elizabeth II on September 08, 2022. The King remains an enthusiastic artist, and a collection of his watercolors went on show in London last year. These pieces, not easily acquired, have reached values from $8,000 to $10,000 on the block since his coronation. "Painting transports me into another dimension which, quite literally, refreshes parts of the soul which other activities can't reach, he has said. He has previously described painting as one of the most relaxing and therapeutic exercises I know, adding that it refreshes parts of the soul which other activities cant reach.
