Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have received a new piece of artwork from the same artist who painted the late Queen Elizabeth II.

Dan Llywelyn Hall, who holds the distinction of being the youngest artist to paint a portrait of the late monarch, has unveiled a series of new works. Among these are depictions of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as historical royals, as reported by The Mirror. 

In these avant-garde etchings, Meghan is depicted as Dame Elizabeth Grey, Queen of England by marriage, while Harry is portrayed as Charles Edward Stuart, famously known as Bonnie Prince Charlie.

The artwork featuring Meghan is titled Returning White Queen, portraying her as Elizabeth Woodville, later known as Dame Elizabeth Grey, who became Queen of England by marrying King Edward in 1464.

Harry is represented in a piece called Spectre Of The Bonny Prince, depicting him as Charles Edward Stuart, who was known as the Young Pretender and Bonnie Prince Charlie.

Llywelyn Hall said, "In Harry's case, I have entered the story before he met Meghan the young party-goer with his future very much in the balance, a bit like the Bonnie Prince I have likened him to. I thought putting Meghan in the role of the White Queen, who was a Queen Consort and possibly the most influential 'outsider' in Royal history, might have a fine irony to it and not necessarily beyond the realms of reality."
