Prince George's kingfisher drawing unveiled in Prince William's magazine edition
The 13-year-old prince's coloured pencil artwork was featured in a special edition of Country Life magazine guest-edited by his father.
Prince George's colourful drawing of a kingfisher has been unveiled in a special edition of Country Life magazine, according to a report by the Times of India. The artwork was featured in the 300-page publication released in November 2026, which was guest-edited by the Prince of Wales, Prince William.
The drawing, created using coloured pencils, depicts a kingfisher on a branch. It was reportedly made by the 13-year-old at Forest Lodge, Windsor, during the spring of 2026 when he was 12. A Kensington Palace spokesperson confirmed that George agreed to his father's request to publish the piece, which was originally a personal creative exercise.
The magazine edition reflects Prince William's interests in wildlife, conservation, and rural communities. He spent approximately six months collaborating with the editorial team to shape the content, which includes his memories of growing up at Highgrove and his interest in Aston Villa football club.
The reveal has drawn attention to the artistic interests of the royal family, specifically King Charles III. The monarch is an experienced watercolourist and a patron of the arts, according to the official British royal family website.
The magazine also includes an interview with the Princess of Wales, Catherine, regarding the importance of nature in her life and her recovery from cancer. This follows previous instances where the family shared artwork, such as a reindeer painting in 2022 and portrait sketches in 2025.
