I love how QMII wore blue to open The Blue Planet, if that's not suitable, I don't know what is  (though I will happily agree that her "hat" isn't suitable ... for any occasion). I live freakishly close to the aquarium and had I not been to school on Thursday, I would have tried to catch a glimpse of Margrethe and Henrik (or perhaps not, I was out there on Monday and it was storming so bad and there were hundreds of people, which, I can tell you right now, is a combination that can drive anyone nuts).

Yesterday, March 26, Queen Margrethe received a new garden bench for the park of Marselisborg Palace. It's a belated gift from the city Aarhus to mark Margrethe's 40th jubilee in 2012.

Thanks LadyFinn 
I like it. I think it captures Christian very well.
Much better than if he was just standing there - and he is his father's son...

The lion is a bit much, in my estimation

That's one of three silver-lions standing in the Throneroom at Rosenborg Castle.

I like the painting
I think the pose is cute. But if we wanted a real natural pose of a 7 yr old boy, Christian would be riding the lion 
Does Frederik have a similar painting or picture with the lion(s)?

oh a little charmer :-) i think it is a perfect way for an 7 years to pose, he looks happy, confident and like a cool and smart boy :-) Glad he did not just stand and yes, there is no doubt who his daddy is :-) and I must say I really like and appreciate that Frederik&Mary never dress Christian with tie

Great portrait that gives a glimpse of the young princes personality. Love the Rosenborg silver lion.
I wonder where QMII will hang the portrait.

I like that painting, it's very true to Christians character IMO.

and his grandmother's heir, so that the Lion is indeed very appropriate; I wonder if he has her wrapped around his thumb like he has the lion? Thanks for the reminder Muhler, but I saw those lions when I visted Rosenborg and was mightily impressed!

Christian himself is captured very well but I find the lion too much and the pose is dreadful for a kid, its like a playboy's pose wearing a shiny suit.

He is a good mix between his parents IMO -he has his mother's beautiful classic features and his father's boyish charm.
I certainly think that they (Christian and grandma Margrethe) has a special bond between them. He is the heir to the throne. IIRC, she has also mentioned it once in an interview.
