Will Isabella, Vincent, and Josephine's shields be hung on their 18th birthdays even though they were awarded the Elephant when their father became king?

That's true.

Why does Federik stand like that? Rhetorical question of course..he has always stood like that. But now as a king, it looks undignified. He should really make more of an effort, especially in historical photos such as these.

I can see it being just the present, former and future Monarchs. The 3 generation photo is great

Lovely. Wonder why Mary wasn't there?

"In connection with a private tour of The National Historical Museum at Frederiksborg Castle in Hillerød for His Majesty The King, His Royal Highness The Crown Prince and Her Majesty Queen Margrethe earlier today, the Crown Prince's elephant Knight Shield was hung in the Knight Chapel in the Castle Church The elephant knight shield, as king. weapon painter Ronny Skov Andersen is behind, is done in continuation of the fact that the Crown Prince - then Prince Christian - on his 18th birthday (15th). October last year) was awarded the Elephant Order by her grandmother, Queen Margrethe. The shield reflects the Crown Prince's coat of arms and title at the time last autumn, when the shield was completed. It is a tradition for elephant knight shields that they are not changed, even if the knight in question later changes title or weapon. As a Danish prince, the Crown Prince carries the royal Danish coat of arms, last established by Queen Margrethe after ascension to the throne in 1972. The shield is divided into four fields of the Dannebrogcross. 1. and 4. field is the weapon of Denmark's empire, i a golden field the three crowned blue lions surrounded by nine red hearts. It's been known from the end of the 1100s and has been Denmark's coat of arms ever since. And 2. field is seen Southern Jutland's two blue lions in a field of gold. The 3. Field is divided into three more fields, all blue. Here you can see three crowns of gold, which is actually Sweden's national coat of arms, but which in the royal Danish coat of arms stands as a memorial to the union of the three Nordic kingdoms. At the same time, a silver ram is seen, which is the weapon of the Faroe Islands and dates back to the 13th century. Finally, a silver bear is seen, which has been Greenland's coat of arms since the 1660s. In the middle of the heart shield, the two red Oldenborg bars, the dynastic weapons of the royal family, are seen in a gold field. The shield is held by two savages known as the shield holders of Christian 1. s time. And the shield is surrounded by a hermeline forearm cloak. As something special, the Crown Prince's coat of arms is crowned by the special prince's crown, which, along with other rank crowns, was introduced by Christian 5. and 1693. Unlike the royal crown, the prince's crown only has three visible brackets and a pearl on top. Together with the Latin title in the inscription "PRINCEPS DANIAE", the prince crown reflects the Crown Prince's status as Prince of Denmark at the time of the completion of the shield."

DRF/Mary Fonden instagram On World Book Day we recognise the great importance of books to us as humans. Books are culture, excitement, play, fantasy, knowledge and language. The language gives life to the books and helps us understand ourselves and each other. That's why Mary Foundation's project LæseLeg starts with picture books to work with children's language development, play and social relationships. When children are able to express their feelings and needs, their well-being and ability to join communities is of great importance, and here the imaginative world of books can be a safe foundation to stand on. When LæseLeg showed positive results for children's communicative abilities in a new effect study earlier this year, it was therefore yet another acknowledgement of the importance of books and language - already from the beginning of life. Enjoy reading and happy World Book Day. - H.M. The Queen
