My favorite part is how William and George are holding hands. So sweet.

I wonder why Prince William is not wearing his wedding ring? You'd think he would wear it in an official photo. What do you think? After looking at Prince George, I looked closer and noticed this. Hmm.

How cute is that?! Love that he's standing on boxes. And I love his outfit very fitting What a happy photo! I just noticed how much he looks like his dad and even the Queen.

Prince George is adorable, but I think the composition of the portrait is weird.

No ring for Prince William by choice. Some kind of tradition/preference among royals I remember reading somewhere around the time he was married that he wouldn't be wearing a wedding ring.

That's a great picture! It's hard not to smile when looking at George!

Prince George is adorable, but I think the composition of the portrait is weird. It's because the faces are being used for stamps and they had to get the spacing sufficient to allow cropping for that, as well as keep the heads approximately the same size and in the same lighting. So, yeah, it's kinda weird. Not sure why they didn't just take individual portraits for the stamps.

He is such an adorable child! I just want to squish those little cheeks, too.

4 potential monarchs... bet they don't have many portraits like that. He is one gorgeous boy!! Wouldn't that be 1 actual monarch and 3 potential? I agree that he is simply gorgeous! Love his outfit and him standing on a stack of boxes.

I've seen other sets that create a kind of scene.

The Queen looks un-natural with so much make-up on. Prince George is the cutest!

Oh goodness, he is adorable. Actually, the whole picture is great - I think this might be the only time I've ever seen Charles look remotely happy.

I remember the commentators on the wedding day talking about him not having/getting a wedding ring. I can't remember the exact reason, but something about royal husbands not wearing them?

I like how whatever he is standing on coordinates with everyone's clothing!

Oh my he is just so cute..... I would make a good babysitter for them!! lol
I swear I just hate that this picture is just picked to death.. books look funny, the Queen is wearing to much makeup and on and on...
It's a good picture, it is what it is...why do we always have to nic-pic everything to death? Just my humble old opinion...

I wonder why Prince William is not wearing his wedding ring? You'd think he would wear it in an official photo. What do you think? A quick google search says he doesn't have one. He gave a ring to Kate but he chose to not have one given back to him. In general wedding rings on men started during WWII, so are relatively new in terms of monarchy tradition.
