King Charles and Queen Camilla held a reception on July 9, 2025, to celebrate a new exhibition at Buckingham Palace featuring 72 artworks from the monarch's personal collection. The works, created by artists who accompanied Charles on foreign tours over the past 40 years, include paintings, sketches, and even an iPad image. The exhibition, titled "The King’s Tour Artists," opens to the public from July 10 to September 28 and marks the summer opening of the palace. Charles began inviting artists on tours in 1985, and since then, 43 artists have joined him on 70 tours to 95 countries, with the King acquiring at least one piece from each artist.
