Jonathan Yeo's painting and the Queen foregoing furs are modest but solid successes

‘I doubt the King or Queen would recognise the term, but the monarchy has had its own glow-up this week’

This is not a radical stance: the Queen may still choose to wear fur items already in her collection. But it fits into a wider pattern of environmental and welfare concern which is close to the King’s heart too. Foie gras is no longer served in the Royal Household, and the Coronation Roll, the official record of last year’s ceremony, was produced on paper rather than parchment, which is made from animal skins.and standing at 8.5 ft by 6.

They hint at an unstuffiness which the monarchy must from time to time exhibit now, they are positive moves sufficiently notable to garner headlines, and they are uncontroversial enough not to provoke serious opposition or criticism. The Humane Society International was also positive, while the International Fur Federation reacted with carefully calibrated remarks stressing the importance of “freedom of choice”.
