Actually.... Alexander Palace seems more correct, a freudian mistake as I am reading Doblins Berlin Alexanderplatz now :)

I am sure Lucien can provide you with the link (I forgot how I found it)

Well, thanks for the compliments :) Almost half of them were found on the Alexanderplatz forums, I forgot to give credits to the persons who posted them there but I am busy retrieving ther pictures & I will mail them to Jess, who was kind enough to offer to add them to the posts.

Lucien, you should know this as you probably posted some of them yourself

Thanks for the wink,.....but no,I didn't my dear Marengo....,but ofcourse I can provide the link,

The other half I just googled, which took ages (but don't worry, I am a history student these days so I rather enjoyed myself & the stories I read about the royals)...

BTW, Alexanderpalace has the most wonderfull pictures of Dutch Royal Palaces as well.

Of course Margarethe of Denmark has that tiara now! She's a descendant of these two women! The little princess Louise became a queen of Sweden, and her daughter Louise became a queen of Denmark!

gosh, Marengo, how many hours are there in your day?! AND working through that frankly Joycean density of a Doblin book, AND providing us with a stellar thread AND living a life on top of that??

Alexander Palace, huh..Thanks much, I'll have to look into it!

This amount of pictures is indeed amazing. It is wonderfull to look at it. I just read a book about princess Mariannne of the Netherlands and so I got interested in the history of Dutch royalty.

Well, Princess Marianne is one of the most interesting (Dutch) royals that ever lived IMHO. Feel free to add information in her thread: Princess Marianne
