The pose of the Queen isabel II with his great-grandchildren he is also upset. This is the conclusion of the Getty graphic agency after examining, pixel by pixel, the photograph shared by the Royal Family in April 2023. It publishes it New York Post and quotes The Telegraph. The case puts the institution on the limit of credibility, which is facing a deep crisis of public image after the retouched portrait of Kate Middleton and which she herself had to admit that she photoshopped in an unprecedented gesture.
This tender family pose was taken at Balmoral Castle in August 2022, a few weeks before the Queen’s death on September 8. It was Kate the photographer. The image was released months later, specifically, on April 21, 2023, with which the Royal Family paid tribute to the monarch on the day she turned 97.
The Queen appears sitting on her Chester-style sofa upholstered in meadow green. Next to her are her great-grandchildren. We see Louise and James of Wessex (in the third row); Lena Tindall; George and Charlotte; Phillips and Louis Island (second row); and Mia and Lucas Tindall and Savannah Phillips (front row). Those absent are Harry and Meghan’s children, Archie and Lillibet.
Elizabeth II is in the center of the image. She is covered in a plaid blanket and a black jacket. One of the analyzes focuses on the Queen’s shoulders, which appear retouched. Even outlined. The tartan plaid blanket has also been put under scrutiny because the pattern does not match. Another point is the arm of the sofa (on the right of the photograph), which appears blurred.
These photographic retouchings draw powerful attention due to the context and because they are now known after the viralized image of Kate that she herself edited, altering the pose she shares with her children.
