Princess Diana: A Celebration
Hope To See You There!
"Diana: A Celebration presents the life and work of one of the most
remarkable women of our time –and certainly one of the most
photographed, with over one billion television viewers watching the 1981
Royal Wedding. Her charm, beauty and easy grace touched people
worldwide during her short and complex life.
The exhibition
includes a series of 150 stunning objects that chronicle Diana's life
and invite the visitor to share the milestones of her many roles: as a
youngster, schoolgirl and athlete; as the shy kindergarten teacher who
captured the heart of the Prince and the public; as the young, ravishing
royal bride; as the devoted mother, sister and daughter; and as the
tireless charity advocate and spokeswoman.
Also featured in the
exhibition are portraits of her ancestors, family jewels, heirlooms,
paintings, artifacts and photos, which provide historical context. Home
movies filmed by her father and scenes from her childhood, her
engagement to Prince Charles and the events leading up to the Royal
Wedding are remembered and animated with video clips, personal
possessions, photos, displays and letters. The glorious Royal Wedding
gallery features her resplendent gown, diamond tiara, veil and 25 ft.
train, shoes and parasol.
Other major highlights of the
exhibition include:
- Over 28 dresses, suits and evening gowns
designed by Chanel, Versace, Valentino and Azagury that where worn by
the Princess during her public life, accompanied by photos and designer
details from the event at which the outfits were worn.
- Two diamond
tiaras and other priceless family jewels.
-Musical score and lyrics
of the Elton John/Bernie Taupin composition, adapted from "Candle in the
Wind."
-The original text of Earl Spencer's moving tribute to his
sister at the funeral in Westminister Abbey.
-An audio tour with an
introduction by Earl Spencer (provided for an additional fee)
