Lady Sarah Chatto and Family News 1: October 2003-


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
:previous: Thanks eya. Interesting - and nice - to see Sarah representing HM.
 
Nice but not surprising. I assume Sarah already intended to go anyway as the deceased was a close friend of her mother and even godmother of her brother, so very convenient for the queen to ask her niece to represent her as well. It's more surprising that the 2nd earl of Snowdon didn't attend.
 
He might have been there. Sarah is only mention in the CC because she represented the Queen as well.

The article on Royal Central also mentioned other attendees, so I assumed that David would have been mentioned (and pictured) if he attended as well but he might have escaped everybody's attention... Only now I realize that the other attendees in the article were also mentioned in the CC.

Court Circular 4th October:
The Queen was represented by The Lady Sarah Chatto at the Funeral of the Lady Elizabeth Cavendish (formerly Extra Lady in Waiting to The Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon) which was held at St. Peter's Church, Edensor, Derbyshire, today.

The Princess Royal was represented by the Hon. Dame Shân Legge-Bourke.

Princess Alexandra, the Hon. Lady Ogilvy was represented by Mrs. Peter Afia.


I believe this was a private funeral, there would be nobody there to take pictures or report on who attended.
 
Thank you. I’ll look to see if she was at York/Brooksbank wedding.

They were named as they were representing members of the royal family, He would not be named if he was attending as a private citizen.
 
I wonder if his 94,000 followers realize that he is infact the queens grand nephew and in the line of succession!

I am pretty sure they do.

? I'm one of those 94,000. I followed for the fact that he is Princess Margaret's grandson… and the occasional shirtless photo. :whistling:

Here are more details about the event and the inspiration behind the exhibition/tribute to Manolo Blahnik in conjunction with the Wallace Collection:

Manolo Blahnik at the Wallace Collection | A Little Bird

"'The Wallace Collection has been a point of reference for me since my early days in London,' said Blahnik. 'It was -- and remains -- one of my favorite museums... I am incredibly humbled and honored to be part of this project...'"

An interesting critique surrounding a review of the Blahnik exhibition at the Wallace Collection:
Manolo Blahnik at the Wallace Collection - Butterflies and Wheels

I'm familiar with Blahnik's expensive designer shoes, but I never really knew much about him, so I find this interesting. I also wonder why Lady Sarah Chatto, in particular, is the royal who attended this exhibition? I would imagine it has to do with her background as an artist.

Perhaps Lady Sarah also has a connection to the Wallace Collection, or to some of the people who oversee it. She may also be friendly with Blahnik himself. Otherwise, Lady Sarah does not strike me as someone who is a fashionista, nor does she appear to be interested in wearing expensive designer shoes and high heels. Obviously, Lady Sarah knows a lot about art, and she's surely familiar with historic art such as that which comprises the Wallace Collection.

:previous: It's nice to see that Sam Chatto has taken up his mother's artistic interest. Princess Margaret's children have always been pretty creative, so it's no surprise to see that Sam Chatto is doing this. I remember reading that Margarita Armstrong-Jones is taking an artistic course for her exams, too.
 
Yes he very creative and art is his passion. Almost all in the extended Windsor family have businesses that has something to do with art. Royalty plus art is a nice combination.

Sam is also good with writing too. He's really creative.
 
:previous: With a sculptor/painter as a mother and an actor as a father, it's no doubt that Arthur and Samuel have artistic genes!

I can imagine most of the BRF get their creative genes, if we're going back, from Queen Victoria. It's well known that she was a keen painter and enjoyed sketching.

Prince Albert is one good example too. :flowers:
 
Sam Chatto is inviting us all to drop by Hauser & Wirth Somerset gallery for their 'common ground' at Make exhibition which has been on the run since 8 Jun - 10 Aug 2019.

Can't say that I am surprised by Sam Chatto's choice of profession. It’s difficult to earn a livelihood as an artist. Hopefully he will be as commercially successful as his uncle, The Earl of Snowdon.
 
Arthur Chatto, has announced he will be taking part in the GB Row Challenge 2020 as part of a 4 man team in aid of Just One Ocean. The GB Row Challenge is a non stop, unsupported ocean rowing race around the coast of Great Britain starting on 1st June 2020 from Tower Bridge. The crew will be rowing 2 hrs on 2 hrs off for 24 hours each day, for approximately 30 days.
