National Portrait Gallery 國家肖像館 @ 怪怪主婦愛動手

領了London Pass之後往前走就是國家肖像館

投了一英鎊拿了地圖

開始看起這些肖像畫

常設展也是英國皇室祖宗十八代的肖像畫居多

特展要門票的

但只要有London Pass就不用錢

可惜我的卡還不能使用

就沒進去了

這肖像館不能拍照的

現在回想起來還真模糊

但是有一幅圖前面人潮一直絡繹不絕

乍看以為是照片

三名年輕女孩就在她前面與她合影

其實館方監控螢幕就在走道上

有一個人在看著

沒兩下保全就來了

The National Portrait Gallery commissions the first official painted portrait of The Duchess of Cambridge, where it was unveiled today in London, 2 days after Kate's 31st birthday. The Duchess was involved in the selection process, from which artist Paul Emsley, the 2007 winner of the Gallery's BP Portrait Award competition, was chosen by Director Sandy Nairne to paint her official portrait.
