PRESS RELEASE Royal Childhood PRESS RELEASE Royal Childhood A special exhibition at the Summer Opening of Buckingham Palace The State Rooms, Buckingham Palace 26 July – 28 September 2014 From well-loved toys and treasured family gifts to tiny childhood outfits, a special exhibition at Buckingham Palace will give an unprecedented glimpse into life as a young member of the royal family growing up at Buckingham Palace. Spanning more than 250 years, Royal Childhood brings together objects from the Royal Collection, the Royal Archives and the private collections of members of the Royal Family, as well as photographs and film footage. The official residence of Her Majesty The Queen and one of the most famous buildings in the world, Buckingham Palace has been a royal family home since George III purchased Princess Elizabeth and Buckingham House for his new wife Queen Charlotte in 1762. Princess Margaret on a rocking In 1845 Queen Victoria commissioned a fourth wing to be horse, August 1932 added to the Palace to provide 'accommodation for our little family, which is fast growing up' – she had nine children. Buckingham Palace has been the setting for many royal births and christenings over the centuries. The spectacular silver-gilt Lily Font, commissioned by Queen Victoria for the christening of her first daughter Princess Victoria in 1841, has been used at almost all major royal baptisms since, most recently for the christening of Prince George at the Chapel Royal, St James’s Palace in October 2013. The font will go on display in Buckingham Palace's Music Room, where Prince Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew and Prince William were baptized. The silk-satin and lace christening robe worn by Prince George, a replica of the original royal christening robe commissioned by Queen Victoria, will also be shown. Outfits worn by young princes and princesses include the velvet 'walking suits' of the future King George V, a pink coat belonging to the nine-year-old Princess Elizabeth (Her Majesty The Queen) and Prince William's page-boy 'sailor suit' from the wedding of The Duke of York in 1986. A tiny pair of velvet shoes belonging to Queen Victoria's eldest son, Prince Albert Edward, have inscribed on the sole that they were worn by the future King Edward VII at the age of eight months. The exhibition will bring together both family and official gifts presented to royal children. In 1763, a silver baby's rattle was given to the infant Prince of Wales (the future George IV) by his governess; it was subsequently used by his 14 siblings, before being passed to Queen Victoria for use in the royal nursery. In 1883 Queen Victoria gave her newly born granddaughter Princess Alice a pink wool blanket that she herself had embroidered. In 1932 the people of Wales presented Princess Elizabeth, or 'Lilibet' as she was known to close family, with a miniature thatched cottage on the occasion of her sixth birthday. Press Office, Royal Collection Trust, York House, St James’s Palace, London SW1A 1BQ T. +44 (0)20 7839 1377, [email protected], www.royalcollection.org.uk 'Y Bwthyn Bach', or 'The Little House', constructed in the grounds of Royal Lodge in Windsor, boasts electric lighting and running water. The cottage was a favourite toy of Princess Elizabeth and her younger sister Princess Margaret, and continues to be used by the current generation of royal children. The miniature kitchen will be recreated at Buckingham Palace for the exhibition. A number of The Queen's childhood toys will go on display, including a pink tea set in the shape of a rabbit, a set of Knockemdown Ninepins and a wicker pram that the two-year-old Princess Elizabeth enjoyed pushing around the gardens of 145 Piccadilly, her family home until the age of ten. The Queen's early love of equestrianism is reflected in a pair of rocking horses that she and her sister played with from an early age – each horse sports a rosette bearing the initials of one of the Princesses. The toys on display will range from jigsaws to train sets, many enjoyed by generations of royal children. The same small wooden wheelbarrow in the shape of a dog is seen in a photograph of Princess Margaret and then in a photograph of her niece, Princess Anne. Among the earliest items in the exhibition are a dolls' house created by a carpenter on the Royal Yacht for George III's daughters, and dolls made by the young Princess Victoria, inspired by the characters she had seen at the ballet or the opera. Two Parisian dolls belonging to the Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret, and dressed in French couture outfits, will go on display for the first time. Royal Childhood is part of a visit to the Summer Opening of the State Rooms at Buckingham Palace, 26 July – 28 September 2014. Families visiting the Palace will be able to pick up a multi-media guide for children aged 5-12 and visit a special family tent on the Palace's West Terrace to join in with fun activities.

  • Queen Elizabeth II the Queen’S Early Life the Queen Was Born at 2.40Am on 21 April 1926 at 17 Bruton Street in Mayfair, London
    Queen Elizabeth II The Queen’s early life The Queen was born at 2.40am on 21 April 1926 at 17 Bruton Street in Mayfair, London. She was the first child of The Duke and Duchess of York, who later became King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. At the time she stood third in line of succession to the throne after Edward, Prince of Wales (later King Edward VIII), and her father, The Duke of York. But it was not expected that her father would become King, or that she would become Queen. The Duke and Duchess of York with Princess Elizabeth The Queen’s early life The Princess was christened Elizabeth Alexandra Mary in the private chapel at Buckingham Palace. She was named after her mother, while her two middle names are those of her paternal great-grandmother, Queen Alexandra, and paternal grandmother, Queen Mary. The Princess's early years were spent at 145 Piccadilly, the London house taken by her parents shortly after her birth, and at White Lodge in Richmond Park. She also spent time at the country homes of her paternal grandparents, King George V and Queen Mary, and her mother's parents, the Earl and Countess of Strathmore. In 1930, Princess Elizabeth gained a sister, with the birth of Princess Margaret Rose. The family of four was very close. The Queen’s early life When she was six years old, her parents took over Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park as their own country home. Princess Elizabeth's quiet family life came to an end in 1936, when her grandfather, King George V, died.

  • Dr HD CHAMBERLAIN, ANTIQUE ARCHITECTURAL PRINTS
    Dr H. D. CHAMBERLAIN, ANTIQUE ARCHITECTURAL PRINTS COLLECTION Architecture Museum, University of South Australia Dr H. DAVID CHAMBERLAIN, ANTIQUE ARCHITECTURAL PRINTS SERIES 260 HISTORY Dr H. David Chamberlain was born in Adelaide in 1942 and was educated at Highgate Primary and Unley High Schools. He studied medicine at the University of Adelaide and began practising medicine in Kurralta Park in 1969. On his first trip to Europe in 1975 he became fascinated by its architecture and history, and discovered the world of architectural prints and purchase these and architectural books on subsequent trips. The Architecture Museum at the University of South Australia has been pleased to accept many of these. In 1975 Dr Chamberlain purchased and restored a historic home in the Mt Lofty Ranges above Adelaide. COLLECTION DESCRIPTION Over several years Dr H.D. Chamberlain has made a very generous series of donations of prints and books containing prints to the Architecture Museum. The total holding of this collection is over 4000 prints and over 100 books. So far, a preliminary cataloguing has been done for three-quarters of the prints. While the focus of this collection is architecture, it is diverse, and it is also significant as a resource of British and European history and art of the 18th and 19th (and to a lesser extent 17th and 20th) centuries. The main counties of origin are Britain, France, Italy, Germany, Flanders and Holland. The historical aspects of the collection are obvious, but are even more pertinent because a large proportion of the prints show human activity as well as buildings.

  • Windsor Castle Fact Sheet
    FACT SHEET Windsor Castle Windsor Castle is the oldest and largest inhabited castle in the world and has been the family home of British kings and queens for almost 1,000 years. It is an official residence of Her Majesty The Queen and is still very much a working royal palace today, home to around 150 people. The castle is used regularly for ceremonial and state occasions, including state visits from overseas monarchs and presidents. Some of the greatest treasures in the Royal Collection can be seen in the Castle’s magnificent State Apartments. The Royal Archives, the Royal Photograph Collection, the Print Room, and the Royal Library are all based here. Windsor Castle is also home to St George’s Chapel, the spiritual home of the Order of the Garter – the oldest order of chivalry in the world, founded by Edward III in 1348. Today, the Order consists of The Queen, The Prince of Wales and 24 Knight Companions. The Queen spends most of her private weekends at Windsor Castle and takes up official residence for a month in the spring for Easter Court, and for a week each June, when she attends Royal Ascot and the service of the Order of the Garter. The Kings and Queens who shaped the Castle William the Conqueror (r. 10661066----1087)1087) He was the king who first chose the site for Windsor Castle, high above the Thames and on the edge of a Saxon hunting ground. He began building at Windsor around 1070, and 16 years later his castle was complete.

  • Y Bwthyn Bach
    Y Bwthyn Bach The Welsh House (also known as The Little House or Y Bwthyn Bach) was constructed from materials left over from the construction of Llandough Hospital, and it was presented in March 1932 as a gift from the people of Wales to the Duke and Duchess of York (the future King George VI and Queen Elizabeth) for the sixth birthday of Princess Elizabeth (now Queen Elizabeth II). It was transported to Royal Lodge, the royal family's house in Windsor Great Park near Windsor Castle, and has been used as a playhouse for children of the royal family every since. The house was designed by a Cardiff architect, Mr E C Morgan Willmott. It has a thatched roof and is two-thirds of the size of a normal house, 24 by 8 feet, comprising a parlour, a kitchen, a bedroom and a bathroom, with ceilings 5 feet high. It is decorated throughout and has furniture and fittings to scale. The house was featured in the 2012 BBC TV series The Diamond Queen, celebrating Queen Elizabeth's 60 years on the throne, in which Andrew Marr is shown over the house by Prince Beatrice, who has taken a special interest in refurbishing it.
