Victoria visits on 8th November Gripsholm Castle and attends at the delivery of a portrait from the Friends of the Nationalmuseum to the National Portrait Collection.
Svensk Damtidning tells that she gets then a very special gift for her 40th birthday - a unique 40-year portrait of herself.
- It's a black and white photograph and it is taken by photographer Thron Ullberg, says Mattias Robertson, press officer at Nationalmuseum.
- I have seen it myself and it is very fine! This is the 40th birthday gift of the Crown Princess and in connection with the handover she is given her own copy.
The Friends of the Nationalmuseum donate the portrait to the Nationalmuseum, which is responsible for the Swedish national collection. It is the world's oldest national portrait collection, featured at Gripsholm Castle.

It will ge interesting to see Victoria's portrait. Each year the Gripsholm Castle Association commissions “portraits of honour" of prominent Swedes to add to the collection featuring prominent Swedes from the days of Gustaf Vasa down to the present. In 2016 photographer Thron Ullberg made the portrait of honour of the royal family's friend professor Barbro Usher and it looked like this:

He has also taken photos of king Carl Gustaf, which can be seen at this slideshow at his website.

Victoria met today at the Royal Palace representatives from Svenska Lottakåren (The Swedish Women's Voluntary Defence Organization): Secretary general Heléne Rådemar and National director Barbro Isaksson. They gave Victoria information about their organization's work. Victoria is the patron of Svenska Lottakåren.

Translation
Svenska Lottakåren tells at their Facebook, that the Secretary general and National director gave their patron her 40th birthday presents: In addition to a gift to Crown Princess Victoria's fund, Victoria received a book with personal greetings from the members of Svenska Lottakåren. The book is tied with fabric from a jacket which in 1960 was part of the association's costume.
And at court Instagram we can see Victoria looking at the book.

Victoria visited today Gripsholm Castle and unveiled a portrait of her, which Nationalmusei Vänner (The Friends of the Nationalmuseum) donated to the National Portrait Collection. It was Victoria's 40th birthday gift, taken by photographer Thron Ullberg at Gustav III's Pavilion at Haga Park. Victoria said that she hadn't seen it before this event, and she got her own copy to take home to Haga Palace.

What a great portrait of Victoria! Here a good photo of it. The Nationalmuseum tells at their press release, that Thron Ullberg photographed Victoria at Gustav III's Pavilion, which Victoria is very fond of. The Crown Princess is shown in the role of the heir to the Throne, with her eyes attached to the future. Thron Ullberg (born 1969) is one of Sweden's leading portrait photographers. He started reading art history, but soon went to the photography. Ullberg often works with large format cameras and traditional negatives that he digitally processes, a sign of the love of the old photographic craft.

Photographer Thron Ullberg told at the unveiling of Victoria's portrait about taking it at Gustav III's Pavilion:
- The only gaffe was that I was holding a small fog machine so that it would be like a little mist at the photo. I told my assistant to put it on. And when he started it there came a bang, Thron Ullberg said.
It became a big bang, which made both crown princess Victoria and Thron Ullberg to jump. However, the Security Service's bodyguards got probably most scared.
- A real icebreaker, exclaimed Victoria and said:
- This is a great gift. But also a nice experience to be part of. Then it's a great honor to ... hang, sit or stand or how you say now, among the others in the collection.

On 15th November Crown Princess Victoria will have an audience for volunteers from Stockholm Pride. Will be interesting and see the news from this event, and what it potentially will mean for the future.

Inaugural speech maybe? Stockholm will host Europride in 2018 and might want to ask her to hold the inaugural speech?

I also thought of that, and it would be cool! Or be the protector of the event, maybe, or both? But she is meeting volunteers, so I don't know?

You're right. Would be more probable for her to meet with members of the board if she was to have a part in it.

I thought so, but let's hope she will get a role for next year.

"It was a amazingly personal and nice meeting with HRH Crown Princess", says Jimmy for QX. "We were invited to the Palace because we have worked for 20 years with Stockholm Pride and the Crown Princess was very warmhearted and wanted to hear more about us, our stories about Hbtq and how the Stockholm Pride and the Hbtq community has changed during these years."

After this meeting Victoria met Hans Dahlgren, State Secretary for International and EU Affairs to Prime Minister Stefan Löfven. And Livia Spada, the representative of the Riksdag to the EU institutions.
