Is that the same room that had the map of the world on it?

I'm not a fan of the new art I'm afraid.
It makes me feel dizzy just looking at it. Can't imagine having to sit in that room for a couple of hours...

I think it's the room which had simple green walls. On the second floor, next to the Great Hall.
The Mary Foundation presidium meetings etc are always held there.
"the last room in the mansion that we have decorated with contemporary art by a Scandinavian artist."

This is really about Frederik presenting grants from The CP-Couple Foundation, but who cares.
It's what on the walls that are interesting!

Frederik told his guests: "I'd like you to pay attention to this. Something I'm actually very proud of. It's an artwork that more or less encircle the room. But it is also the last room in the mansion that we have decorated with contemporary art by a Scandinavian artist.
The artwork is by Swedish Miriam Bäckström from Stickholm - I really like it - not just only because it's inspiring and fantastic, but it's actually a modern goblin that is woven, not printed on machines you only find in Belgium."
It depicts a kind of electric storm that is frozen in a thousand of a second.
- I like it too!  |
I like it too.
They have added their personal touch and with modern Scandinavian artist, good.
And it was Frederik presenting grants from the Crown Prince Frederik fund for students at Harvard

Dr.dk writes that the 800th year anniversary celebrations of the Dannebrog flag that's taking place in Vordingborg with Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary in attendance has been interrupted and postponed because of the heavy rains and the thunderstorm that's currently hitting Denmark (and the south of Sweden where I am) hard. According to DR nobody has been hurt, but the participants of the ceremony has been evacuated to an exhibition hall close by.

Today, Frederik participated in a race in Aarhus

His Royal Highness ran five kilometers in 24.04 minutes under the DHL relay in Aarhus
"- It really means a lot. And it means a lot that he can participate on par with everyone else. It was his wish that it should be so,"

A nice BB video of M&F strolling hand in hand from their home at Amalienborg to a nearby theater.
Mary looks good, methinks.

Summary of article in Billed Bladet #36, 2019.
Written by Dorte Quist.
As you know Frederik has been out and about with children recently and in the context he was asked about his back.
Frederik said: "Right now I'm actually very well."
Frederik went on to explain that for the rest of his life he has to keep training his back, in fact his entire torso and he is fine with that. He view the training as continual maintenance rather than something he must do. - Attitude, you know.
(Frederik is actually quoted in the article, but you know, Frederik and words! I had to read it twice to make sense of what he said. Hence why I don't translate what he said in full.)
The BB article speculates as to whether Frederik will focus on another form of sport than running, which as you know can be very hard on the back.

The prestigious riverside winemaker Peter Sisseck accompanied the couple during their visit to Peñafiel.

Frederik and Mary out and about. Let's see if our Danes can guess the location : D

From this person's Instagram stories, there looks to be a video camera so maybe Frederik and Mary recording a segment, maybe for the CP couple prize?
