A Surprising Insight into Royal Talent
I suppose any crown prince could get a book of his watercolours published, but this is a collection worthy of wide admiration even if it were done by an anonymous artist.
As I have downsized and pared my possessions and reduced my books to those I simply must have, this book remains always in the Keeper Collection.

A very nice hardcover gift book with various watercolour styles and personal commentary by the prince of Wales. His grandmother, the queen mother, writes a very beautiful and endearing foreword.

Beautiful pictures. Lovely words. A great view into the mind of the monarch.

Prince Charles is a better artist than he gives himself credit for; and he has inspired me to try my hand a drawing.
