These portraits are fit for a king and queen.

The official coronation photos of King Charles III and Queen Camilla were revealed Monday and showed the new leaders of the Commonwealth in their finest regalia.

But two royals were notably missing from the portrait session: Prince Harry and Prince Andrew.

Hugo Burnand, who took Charles and Camilla’s wedding photos in 2005, snapped the pictures immediately after the 74-year-old monarch was officially crowned at Westminster Abbey on May 6, reports the BBC.

Dressed in the Robe of Estate and wearing the Imperial State Crown, Charles looked regal in Buckingham Palace’s Throne Room.

The new monarch is captured holding the Sovereign’s Orb and Sovereign’s Scepter with Cross in his often-mocked “sausage” fingers.

In the photo, Charles is seen sitting on one of the thrones that was built for the1902 coronation of King Edward VII.

Camilla, 75, was photographed in the palace’s Green Drawing Room wearing Queen Mary’s crown and robe.

Burnand, 59, also released a group photo of all the senior royal members including Prince William, 40, and Kate Middleton, 41; Princess Anne and Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence; the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester; Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh; and Princess Alexandra.

Notably missing from the photo were disgraced Prince Andrew and Prince Harry, who attended his father’s coronation but immediately left the UK to return to Los Angeles after the ceremony.

The unveiling of the portraits concluded the three-day celebration in the UK, which included a star-studded concert on Sunday featuring acts such as Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, Nicole Scherzinger and a reunion of British boyband Take That.

Charles and his wife issued a statement offering their “most sincere and heartfelt thanks” to those who helped make the coronation weekend “such a special occasion.”

“To know that we have your support and encouragement, and to witness your kindness expressed in so many different ways, has been the greatest possible coronation gift,” the statement said.

The king and queen also promised to rededicate their lives to “serving the people of the United Kingdom, the Realms and Commonwealth.”
