Majesty Magazine July 2016 Retour à l'édition précédente

Over three consecutive days in June the official celebrations for the Queen's 90th birthday took place in London: a thanksgiving service at St Paul's Cathedral, Trooping the Colour and then a picnic unlike any other in The Mall.
Full coverage appears in our July issue, together with a report by Carolyn Durand about Prince Harry and his hugely successful Invictus Games in Orlando, Florida. Biographer Matthew Dennison takes a look at Beatrix Potter's journals to discover her thoughts about the royal family of her time, while Trond Norén Isaksen writes about Marie-Louise, Napoléon's second empress. And Coryne Hall remembers Infanta Beatriz de Orleans-Borbón to mark the 50th anniversary of her death.
