WINTERHALTER’S PORTRAIT OF A YOUNG QUEEN VICTORIA, GIVEN AS A PRIVATE GIFT TO PRINCE ALBERT, to be highlighted on BBC Program
This beautiful 1843 portrait of Queen Victoria was painted by Xavier Winterhalter for the Queen to be given as a private gift to the consort. He put it in his private office where it stayed until after Queen Victoria’s death. I think the image is one of Winterhalter’s finest portraits still in the Royal Collection. This beautiful portrait will be highlighted on the BBC Radio Program celebrating the Royal Collection, part of the Jubilee celebrations.

THE PRINCE ALBERT EXHIBITION IN COBURG — This is an exhibition I MUST SEE. Ever been to Coburg? Join me for this!
Prince Albert, the Prince Consort, is one of my favorite personalities in British history. His impact on 19th and 2oth century Britain is immeasurable. When he married Queen Victoria, the Royal Household changed and his vitality reached in every direction: art, enamel, education, environment, manufacturing, trade, politics, MUSIC, fresco, architecture, dance, style, hunting, morals, religion and philosophy, poetry, jewelry, porcelain, trains and ships, on and on. This was a “renaissance” man who was alive to his own detriment. He loved his life in England, but he never forgot his Coburg ties. This exhibition is incredibly important. I will be in England soon, and I will find my way to Coburg, Germany, Prince Albert’s German home. FABULOUS.
