Greetings!
I hope you will be able to join us
on Friday 16th May, 11.30am (for about an hour)
at The Beaumont, Barchester Care, 15 Cannon Hill, Old Southgate, N14 7DJ
to explore the art & times of Franz Xaver Winterhalter (1805-1873) a German artist who found favour at the royal courts of Europe, especially Napoleon III’s Versailles, as well as with Queen Victoria and her family… Indeed his portraits “King Edward VII when Prince of Wales” and “Queen Alexandra when Princess of Wales” [both 1864; Royal Collection Trust] are currently on display in The Edwardians: Age of Elegance exhibition at The King’s Gallery (for exhibition overview / website click: The Edwardians).
There’ll be lots to look at and discuss – I hope you’ll be able to come along!
The discussions are for everyone, whether residents or local community. Please note a £3 on-the-door request to cover the cost of coffee and biscuits. With all thanks to Barchester Health Care.
