Catch March’s must-see exhibition, The Queen and her Corgis
Britain’s longest-serving monarch is celebrated in a brand new exhibition opening this month. Titled The Queen and her Corgis, it’s no secret what the subject of this one is about. It takes a look at some of the photographs from Queen Elizabeth’s reign and the corgis who were always in tow alongside her.
This collection coincides with The Wallace Collection’s major exhibition, Portraits of Dogs: From Gainsborough to Hockney, a unique look at the relationship between dogs and humans. Opening on March 28th, expect plenty of pooch portraits to explore, showcasing different canines from breeds to shapes and sizes. Find out more about The Queen and her Corgis here.
