.
On 3 October 2025, the day of the Trounwiessel, His Royal Highness the Grand Duke takes the constitutional oath before the Chamber of Deputies and accedes to the throne of Luxembourg.
On this occasion, the Maison du Grand-Duc commissions a series of official portraits intended to represent the Head of State in an institutional setting. Organised in collaboration with the Nationalmusée um Fëschmaart, and supported by the Chamber of Deputies and the Ministry of Culture, this presentation offers the public an opportunity to discover the ensemble.Created by Serge Ecker, Andrew Gow, Louise Pragnell and Roland Schauls, the works on view – oil paintings and a bust – take their place within a centuries-old tradition: the official portrait. Their making mobilises a wide range of expertise: from framers who design and craft the frames using traditional methods, to 3D-scanning specialists for the bust, and an art foundry that draws on a wide range of skills to cast it in bronze.These portraits propose as many ways of thinking about the official image: as an instrument of representation for the Head of State, as a marker of the beginning of a reign, and as a showcase of the vitality of today’s artistic scene.
