IIRC, it was taken in the late 1970s, during the state visit of the Icelandic President (you can tell by the Sash). The same picture was published in a PdV profile on Queen Silvia and her Jewels back in March/April of 2000. I have it in my collection, although it is not full length either.

Great pictures of Queen Silvia, Dennism!

Here is one more terrific photo of the Queen. Love this colour on her! Makes that brown (mahogany?) hair of her's really stand out.

I think the king missed his queen at the sportsgala. His looks kind of lonely and lost...In a way he always does when she isn't by his side. I think it's VERY cute :heart:!
 
No doubt. He tries and tries to show a happy face but he must miss her at these events.

Well, this picture looks, as if he would have found a "substitute-wife" (but just for the evening!) ;) :p
 
That's a look I've seen many times from Annika. She's looking at the lie and trying to figure out how to putt or how to hit it out of the deep rough.

I gather Kofi's wife is Swedish. I wonder how 'well connected' she is with the Swedish RF?
 
Don't know. She surely knows Silvia. She is involved with the various children programs at the UN. She and Kofi were at Willem and Maxima's wedding as well. From a UN site:

"Nane Annan was born in Stockholm, Sweden. She trained as a lawyer and worked for many years in the public sector. After receiving a law degree from Stockholm University in 1968, she entered the Swedish Court System, becoming an Assistant Judge at the Administrative and Fiscal Court of Appeal in Stockholm in 1975. On leave from the Court, she assisted in legislative projects as Assistant Secretary of the Swedish Parliamentary Aliens Act Commission (1976-1981) and as expert of the Swedish Commission on Ethnic Prejudice and Discrimination (1979-1980). In 1981, she joined UNHCR Geneva as a Legal Officer until 1983 when she moved to New York.

Since 1985 she has been painting full time for several years in two New York institutions - the Art Students League and the Studio School. She has participated in a few group exhibitions, two benefiting UNICEF and one at United Nations premises in Germany. In 1996 she joined the board of Women's International Forum, which provides a forum for discussion on international relations, particularly in regard to the United Nations.

The election of her husband as Secretary-General of the United Nations in December 1996 has brought about dramatic changes in both their lives. Although she is pursuing her interest in art, she is focusing on women's issues, also in regard to programmes designed to alleviate poverty, and the welfare of children and refugees. However, given her and her husband's sudden loss of anonymity, she finds it important to provide a retreat into a private world for both of them as well."

haha, looks funny. a new human. "Kofi- Victoria" :lol:
 
I was just imagining Victoria with his accent. That would be interesting.
 
Queen Silvia reminds me of Eugenie de Montijo y Guzman. Both seem to have a limitless supply of gorgeous dresses and gowns. Empress Eugenie dressed for political reasons and to keep luxury industries going. She really wasn't all that interested in fashion and dress from what I've read. Maybe Silvia is dressing the part and isn't enthusiastic about dress. But if that's the case, she's sure fooled me!
 
well....can you maybe post some of those pictures?...because I tried to get to see them, but the computer cept saying that I had to log in first...so pleeeeease help...I would really loooove :heart: to see those pictures! Kamilla ;)
 
Yes, how can you watch ALL pictures at brainpix. The text under the one pic, in which both are eating ice-cream, says that there are 7 pics, but I can´t find them...
