Obama To Stay In Royal Suite With Huge Portrait Of King George III

Obama To Stay In Royal Suite With Huge Portrait Of King George III: "The three principal rooms of the suite are furnished in a style that gives the visiting head of State an idea of how British Royalty lived in previous centuries. Yellow is the predominant colour in the main 18th Century Room, and among the Royal portraits are three-quarter-length paintings of King George III and Queen Charlotte, while works by Canaletto stand alongside one of Gainsborough’s most famous paintings, Diana And Actaeon.

President and Mrs Obama will sleep in the blue Orleans Bedroom, with two canopied beds and no fewer than three pictures of a previous Royal hostess, Queen Victoria."
