Denmark is preparing to celebrate the Jubilee of the sovereign. On January 14, 2022, Queen Margrethe II will celebrate 50 years on the throne and with the diffusion of the official photograph taken by Per Morten Abrahamsen, The Royal House officially kicks off the celebrations.
In the photo, the 81-year-old queen, who ascended the throne in 1972 following the death of her father Frederick IX, is shown sitting in the Ballroom of Fredensborg Castle wearing a blue velvet dress (already worn in 2020) and the famous Poiré Tiara Pearl, composed of diamonds and eighteen teardrop pearls, which Margrethe II also wore on coronation day and in her first official portrait.
The tiara, made in 1825, is part of a jewelery set of which the queen also wears the necklace and a brooch, but what stands out most are the coats of arms of the Royal Orders and the small portrait of her father pinned on the chest, ornaments necessary in a photograph destined to remain in the history of the country.
In this image which is the emblem of royalty, Margrethe II appears in an unusual pose compared to the Scandinavian understatement to which she has accustomed her subjects. It has always been, in fact, a very unconventional sovereign. First woman to ascend the Danish throne since the time of Margrethe I, who reigned from 1375 to 1412, she has never been locked in the Palaces and has always shown herself to be very active in the first person.
Smoker, whimsical, and art lover, even after wearing the crown she continued to cultivate her passions: a few hours before the release of this official shot, for example, the press conference in which Her Majesty attended to present the ballet The Snow Queen, inspired by the fairy tale by Christian Andersen and on stage in Copenhagen until Christmas Eve, for which she herself designed costumes and sets. And just a few weeks earlier it was announced that Margrethe will also create the costumes for a fantasy film produced by Netflix.
In April Margrethe II will be 82 years old. And he certainly has no intention of retiring.
