Prince Charles states that painting is 'one of the most relaxing and therapeutic exercises I know,' at the largest exhibition of his watercolors to date
In the exhibition text, the prince admitted that he is"appalled by how bad" his early works were.
"I am under no illusion that my sketches represent great art or a burgeoning talent!" he added."They represent, more than anything else, my particular form of 'photograph album' and, as such, mean a great deal to me." During a royal tour of Japan, Prince Charles sits to paint a watercolor in the garden of the Imperial Palace In Kyoto.Though the prince does not sell his watercolors, lithographs of his works are used to raise money for his charitable fund. In 2016, the UK's Daily Telegraphthat he had sold approximately £2 million worth of them from a shop at his Highgrove House residence.
In 1994, Britain's Royal Mail featured Charles' landscape paintings on a series of postage stamps marking 25 years since the ceremony that formally recognized him as the Prince of Wales. The National Gallery of Australia also exhibited several of his works in 2018 to mark his 70th birthday. Two decades earlier, for his 50th birthday, some 50 of his watercolors went on display at Hampton Court Palace, the residence of his ancestor Henry VIII.
The watercolors are displayed at the Garrison Chapel in Chelsea Barracks, a converted army barracks in London's upmarket Belgravia district. Also on display is a tapestry based on one of the prince's paintings,"Abandoned Cottage on the Isle of Stroma," that took weaver Ben Hymers eight months to complete.
