Yeo says the butterfly by the King's shoulder symbolises "the beauty of nature and highlights the [King's] environmental causes"

Does the burning red inferno also symbolise environmentalism?

The King also got a glimpse of it, says Yeo, in its "half-done state… He was initially mildly surprised by the strong colour but otherwise he seemed to be smiling approvingly".

This is what people say when they make a painting of their terminally ill dog.
