This is a delightful original vintage poster featuring the Danish Queen Margrethe II and her ancestors, showcasing the rich history of the royal family in Denmark. The poster was redesigned by Henry Thelander in 1972.
The French version of the poster charmingly narrates the royal lineage: "Il était une fois au DANEMARK il y a mille ans de cela un souverain nommé Gorm le Vieux. Depuis cette époque, sa famille n'a cessé de gouverner le pays qui est le plus ancien royaume du monde. La reine MARGRETHE II est une descendante du vieux Gorm."
"Once upon a time in DENMARK, a thousand years ago, there was a sovereign named Gorm the Old. Since that time, his family has continued to rule the country, which is the oldest kingdom in the world. Queen MARGRETHE II is a descendant of old Gorm."
Preserved in very good condition with minimal signs of age wear, this poster is a captivating glimpse into Danish royal history and a delightful addition to any collection.
