mls Posted July 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 Prince Henrik – A Passionate Collector "In accordance with Prince Henrik's statements in his will, the Danish Royal House has decided that the collection should be sold at auction. The heirs have selected a number of objects that they want to keep, and they have decided that a number of jades and African objects will remain on display at the Royal Family’s Château de Cayx in France. Part of the proceeds from the auction will go to the two royal foundations, the Crown Prince Couple's Foundation and the Nikolai & Felix Foundation.

Hannelore Posted July 14, 2019 Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 Gorgeous collections. Seeing the African masks really makes me curious about its background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mls Posted July 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 Hard to tell considering the huge amount of items. "It was also during these years that Prince Henrik, through a fellow student from the Ivory Coast, discovered what would become his lifelong fascination with African figures and masks of carved wood. Later in the 1980s, he bought some of his first figures from the Danish artist Robert Jacobsen's collection. Over the years, Prince Henrik repeatedly visited Africa as an ambassador for the Red Cross and other charitable purposes. Here, the Prince experienced the continent's cultural riches and rituals first-hand, and when he could get away from his official duties, he sought out local flea markets and merchants to buy new objects for his collection."

mls Posted March 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2020 Queen Margrethe arrives home on Thursday and residence will be at Fredensborg Palace. The traditional torch procession which welcomes her to Fredensborg has been cancelled this year due to the corona virus. Princess Benedikte's attendance at one event has also been cancelled this week. Have to wonder if this virus will effect QM birthday celebrations next month...?

The Queen's plan is to replace the wine castle with the hunting lodge in Trend, which is one of the royal family's most undisturbed holiday homes. However, it is rarely used by the queen, who has otherwise spent many holidays there as a child with her sisters. But this year, the queen uses the hunting lodge rather than the wine castle."
