The Royal Society of Portrait Painters invites you to the RP Annual Exhibition 2026.
About
Promoting artistic excellence in portraiture, this annual exhibition is the leading portrait painting showcase in the country. Alongside members of the Society, emerging and established artists - both national and international - present a great breadth of approaches to portraiture.
Expect intimate moments from daily life, as well as high-profile commissions of public figures.
The show is always selected by a jury of practising portrait painters, no critics, no journalists, no celebrities – just painters.
The Society offers a personal service to help those thinking of commissioning a portrait.
