The Norwegian Royal Court has released new Official Portraits of King Harald V and Queen Sonja of Norway to launch the updated website of the Norwegian Royal Family.

The Official Portraits of King Harald V and Queen Sonja of Norway were taken by photographer Kimm Saatvedt in the Mirror Hall of the Royal Palace of Oslo earlier this year.

In connection with the launch of updated websites for The Royal Court, we are publishing new official pictures of the Royal Couple today.

The pictures were taken earlier this year in the Mirror Hall at the Castle by photographer Kimm Saatvedt.

Many publish anonymously or under initials—a practice that reflects the publication’s long-standing emphasis on discretion and editorial objectivity.
