Dear BFA, Someone is abusing me and making me angry and mad irrationally planting disgusting demons in me indirectly, including dogs and donkeys. I feel and became suffocated and nauseous and heart attack, respiratory problem. I cannot afford to buy and smoke cigarettes for financial and health reasons. I would not have smoked it without any trouble and cannot afford to get it. I know "the whisper magic" but I cannot do it at all. I broached the whisper magic teachings to explain you only. Someone under ways me regularly entering the punishment when I am sleeping and the dirty when I am awake. No normal, no out of control. Such voice can not be heard!!! The justice can not catch the people bothering me because I had seen them. Thanks and respect Roobin Cabdi Ibraahim Adan 7312 Horitschon, Austria Roobin
Absolutely stunning 😊 Cecil Beaton created images of ageless beauty .
Purple and green do not go well together 😊 But beautiful😊!!
If someone presented me with this guest room, not one complaint would you hear from me.
gotta be the most pretentious sounding accent ive ever heard
The bed held him?
As a harpist I would like to see these playable again!
I’d love to see a long in-depth upload of the entire process
But will it be played on any sort of regular basis?? Is it providing the music for this video?? It is a beautiful thing.
Yeah I’m going e😂😂
The Queen Mother elegant? She was a lot of things, but elegant was not one of them!
The Queen Mother elegant? She was a lot of things, but elegant was not one of them!
It's ugly
splendid
Gaudy? Your majesty that bed looked beautiful
It is impressive; however, it appears to be better suited for a Queen owing to the feminine aspects of the drapery. I guess in this time period it may have been appropriate. To each his or her own.
I can’t wait to visit the King’s Gallery’s during my next trip to London. The curators always manage to put on a unique exhibition that is guaranteed to be one of the highlights of my travels.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
Very interesting. I would like to see the current Portraits exhibit but I won’t be visiting London until December. Hopefully there will be another interesting exhibit on view.
Yes, our next exhibition is Drawing the Italian Renaissance, this opens in November so will be on when you visit in December. More information is here: www.rct.uk/collection/exhibitions/drawing-the-italian-renaissance/the-kings-gallery-buckingham-palace
Vicki had too much money to spend. For a visit? Way too much!
❤😮😊
What kind of mattress was used.
Custom made. They didn't have standard sizes.
Looks like a death chamber 😵💫😩
Poor Vic, the green and purple is horrible 😂 but I guess we’ll have to wait 300 years for her choices to rot before it’s taken back to a nice blue floral and gold
Ikr! What was she thinking? Look how beautiful the blue was!
And red walls!
All I want to know is who got plowed in that bed- disappointing 4:13 it wasn’t mentioned 😢😢😢😢 Jeffrey Epstein
Amazing part of history. Thank you for the recollections !
More items from Carlton House please. What a loss!
Georges Jacob was a very, very talented cabinetmaker
As another comment has already pointed out, the Prince of Wales was not Regent in 1790. His regency was from 1811.
Made similar comment, and then read down and promptly deleted it 🙂. Liked.
🤓🤓🤓
Rather tacky
Exquisite
He wasn’t regent in 1790
Beautiful embroidery
The blue and gold sounds pretty
Sorry. This is all gaudy and ugly on top.
And very Bourbon!
Marvelous!
Beautiful!
Beautiful pictures.
Beautiful and powerful images. I hope they'll do an online exhibition so I can see all those lovely photos.
Thank you for the video
Princess Margaret is a timeless beauty. Her dress is extravagant. Is the dress a Dior?
The 2 rules of great portraits of those over 40: 1. Excellent lighting 2. The farther away the better!
Wow. Looking forward to going to the Photography Exhibition. Absolutely great iconic photographers over time 😊 it's going to be a real treat . Thank you for putting on a great show 😊
