Both portraits depict the royal couple in their Robes of State, alongside their crowns.

It is believed that it was also the first time the King and Queen themselves had seen the finished portraits.
During the same event, the King unveiled a plaque commemorating the completion of a two-year building project and the reopening of the Sainsbury Wing.
John Booth, chairman of the National Gallery, delivered a short welcome speech before inviting Their Majesties to reveal the new portraits.
