The Evening Standard has launched an exclusive opportunity for the celebration of the Coronation of King Charles. Through this chance, readers are able to own a digital artwork created by celebrated artist Trevor Jones, titled ‘The Oath’. It is a one-of-a-kind NFT that holds strong historic values behind it. Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are rare digital items which are used to substitute artwork and this piece of work includes a genuine gold relic of history, St. Edward’s Crown. It is a piece of craftsmanship that captures the coronation’s symbolism.

The free edition of ‘The Oath’ can be accessed on Nifty Gateway website from Thursday to Sunday midnight. NFTs are recorded on the Ethereum blockchain, thereby guaranteeing the uniqueness and authentication of each transaction. Jones has collaborated with Evening Standard to offer his artwork to all its readers who have an email address. Moreover, recipients have the option to keep, gift or sell the piece.

The artwork is set against a backdrop of the landscape, depicting King Charles’ interest in nature. Its name ‘The Oath’ is a reference to Coronation Oath taken by the monarch pledging to abide by the laws and traditions of United Kingdom and Commonwealth Realms under his reign. Furthermore, collectors can also get the benefit of owning a limited animated version of the art a week after the Coronation. Additionally, ten signed reproductions of the original piece are available for the lucky ones.

To sum up, the Evening Standard and Trevor Jones have presented a unique possibility of owning a free artwork to their readers in honour of the Coronation. ‘The Oath’ is a NFT that is distinct in its history, art style and historic representation. It is an exclusive gem for anyone wanting to add it to their collections.
