In 2012 Harewood is pleased to be hosting a special collection of photographs generously lent by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II from the Royal Collection. ‘Marcus Adams: Royal Photographer’, will showcase photographs from the Queen’s childhood, celebrating HM The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee year.
Some formal, some fun, the collection provides a unique insight into the life of the child destined to become Queen. Two vintage prints of Prince Charles and Princess Anne taken in October 1953 when they attended Marcus Adams’s studio together will appear in the exhibition for the first time. In the Terrace Gallery we will also be screening a short piece of film of a very young Princess Elizabeth, an intimate glimpse into a royal childhood.
