Dear All,
Thank you so much for your kind words
The book about The Queen's portraits will be published in England next year. I have been asked by The Royal Collection to consider to do a similar book about Queen Elizabeth - but as this will be a much bigger work, it have to wait until my Ph.D. is done. The book about Kluge's new royal group portrait will be published in both english and danish at christmas time this year. I am also working on a book about the 100 most famous royal portraits for an english publisher. It will hit the shops in late 2013 or early 2014.
And Ayvee - good question about my first name I think you will say it like TYEE. It's not a common name in DK even though it is an old Danish name from the viking period. Right now there is only 221 Thyges in DK. In the family I'm always called Thyge Christian, while my friends just call me TC. I use only Christian when I talk to people from outside Scandinavia because Thyge is so strange. On our boards I used to call myself Gabriel (my second middlename that i have never used) but now that people know about the book and about me I prefer to use my normal name
Have a nice weekend - I can tell you that the gala concert on satuarday will not be with tiaras. I am invited and there is no mention on the invitation that 'tiaras may be worn'...
