@BeardyHowse This seems to be one of the decorative devices hung on standards all across the route, with the Prince of Wales's feathers at the top and some heraldic emblem underneath, under a crown--it must have some Danish relevance. Can't see it well enough!

The Sleeping Princess, one of a number of paintings inspired by The Legend of the Briar Rose, which Edward Burne-Jones painted between c1871 & 1894... interesting that so many artists of that time painted sleeping women. They were about to wake up though! victorianweb.org/painting/bj/se…

For #IWD we celebrate Margaret McPherson Grant, owner 1859-1871 of Lauriston. With her independence & ‘unladylike’ lifestyle, she was a femininomenon who paved her own way through strict Victorian society, challenging gender norms & through philanthropic work. #GivetoGain
