	Buckingham Palace press releases > Exhibition of items from the Royal Philatelic Collection
		The Royal Philatelic Collection is a private collection belonging to The Queen; it is not part of the Royal Collection, which she holds as Sovereign in effect in trust for the nation.
		Much of the Royal Philatelic Collection is due to George V who, as an enthusiastic and expert collector from the 1890's, acquired a huge range of collections, rare stamps and artist's sketches for stamp designs, either by purchase from dealers and auctions, or through official presentations.
		From 1906, he decided to concentrate his collection on stamps (and their designs) of Great Britain and the Empire; the designs include a sketch of the 1840 penny fl sent to Rowland Hill to show him how the stamp would look.

	The Social Affairs Unit - Weblog: Dutch Paintings at the Royal Collection
		Instead, the visitor to the Royal Collection, climbing those pleasing stairs from the entry hall, is presented with two rooms, one large and one small, lined with cerulean linen and hung with perhaps 50 paintings from the greatest age of Dutch painting.
		The bumper year for the collection was 1814, when George IV bought 86 Dutch paintings from the banker Sir Francis Baring and his son Sir Thomas Baring.
		This was the age in which private collections in Britain first began to be opened to a relatively well-dressed, well-scrubbed, more acceptable minority of the general public — less to civilise them further, as would be the motivation a generation or so hence, than to reflect the taste and liberality of the collector himself.

		THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS achieves something that I thought was impossible: to produce a movie containing both Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson that I enjoyed.
		THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS chronicles the sad story of a family of very talented children (Ben Stiller, Luke Wilson, & Gwenyth Paltrow) whose lives are torn apart by the parental failings of their father.
		Gene Hackman is perfectly cast as the "Royal" Tenenbaum, an actor who is perfectly able to portray a man who is both sympathetic and despicable at the same time.
