epiphany, the boot-faced Queen transformed
into an effervescent teenager admiring the
manly attributes of her fiancé.
She was, I have to say, a girl after my own
heart: opinionated, stubborn and guilt-free. There is a particularly
revealing diary entry she writes on the day of her accession: ‘I spent
an hour, quite alone.’ It sounds unremarkable, until you realise that
up until that point, the young Victoria was never, ever alone: at night
she slept on a truckle bed in her mother’s room in Kensington Palace,
and by day she was in the care of her governess, Baroness Lehzen.
She wasn’t even allowed to walk down the stairs unaided – nobody
wanted the heir to the throne to slip and break her neck. When she
received her Prime Minister, Lord Melbourne, for an audience, it
was the first time she had ever been by herself with a man. Another
teenager might have been daunted, but she didn’t flinch. As the
parent of a similarly diminutive 18-year-old (Victoria was barely five
foot), I marvel at the way she took her overnight transformation from
overprotected teenager to the most powerful woman in the world in
her stride. Of course, I also have a shred of sympathy for the young
Queen’s mother, who was effectively discarded by her daughter.

The opportunity this offers to elide the separation between
performers and audience makes for an almost surreally immersive
experience, especially given the deliberately small size of the audito-
rium. It only seats 600, although the stage and orchestra pit are as
large as that of a major opera house, able to accommodate the Philhar-
monia Orchestra, which plays for one production each season.
‘We could have made the Pavilion any size, but we wanted to keep
it intimate,’ says Nicola Creed, Garsington’s executive director.
‘Wherever you sit, you can see the sweat on a performer’s forehead,
or the lift of an eyebrow, and this fantastic sound envelops you.
You’re completely connected to what’s going on on stage.’
As a result, it’s possible to stage productions of varying scale,

This is Rosie’s sixth cover story for Harper’s Bazaar and the third
time I’ve interviewed her – on every occasion she’s been charming and
self-effacing, generous and giving. She wears her beauty lightly; what
comes through most emphatically is her desire to do well, to behave
well. ‘I just want to come across like a decent person,’ she told me
once. ‘I want to make my family proud.’ Her parents are still together,
still living in the Devon farmhouse where she grew up. ‘I have that
solid background,’ she says. The fact she remains so relatable may go

Perhaps unsurprisingly for someone whose curvaceous athleti-

a seemingly effortless ability to flit between girlish wholesomeness
and full-on sex appeal – Rosie says the changes to her body caused
by pregnancy were the most difficult thing to deal with. ‘It was a

before ever travelling there; and so it was with me,
and my fantasy of an Alpine summer. As a child,
I had dreamt of joining Heidi in the flower-clad
meadows that surrounded her grandfather’s moun-
tain cabin, an idyll where ‘she drank in the golden sunlight, the fresh
air… and wished for nothing better than to remain there forever.’
In time, when I came to study the Romantic poets as an under-
graduate, Lord Byron appeared beside Heidi in the landscape of
my imagination, with his vision of grandeur:

Bysshe Shelley, who journeyed with him
on a pilgrimage to the Alps in the summer
of 1816, was similarly inspired (‘Far, far

So, too, was Shelley’s wife Mary, who set
key scenes of her novel Frankenstein against

dining-room warmed by a big log fire, where delicious local dishes
are accompanied by bonhomie and abundant good cheer.

Copenhagen’s famous hotel, the D’Angleterre, stands
on a grand square just across from the multicoloured
houses and sailboats of Nyhavn. Founded in 1755,
this urban retreat is now home to a magnificent
spa (with the city’s only indoor pool), a champagne
bar and the Michelin-starred Marchal restaurant,
where the talented chef Andreas Bagh blends
Nordic and French cuisine. Make sure to save room
for the hotel’s bountiful breakfast buffet, which

ROBODRONE … PIONEERING
SOCIAL MEDIA ENABLING ART
BY
NATASHA GRANO
INSTAGRAM NEWS PRESENTER AND INFLUENCER
On February 14, 2019, I had the pleasure of attending the launch of artist
Robodrone’s new, one year long, exhibition of the convention-breaking
artform known as ‘Social Media Enabling Art’ at legendary partners
Fulvio and Cristian’s Contini Contemporary Art Gallery located in
Central London next to iconic Claridges Hotel.
I had the pleasure of filming an exclusive episode of my IGTV show “A Day In The Life of Natasha Grano” with the Hashtag Queens throne sculpture
that can be experienced at The Contini Gallery. This is a new artform that invites the visitor to sit on the throne to create novel ‘Instaperformance Art’
that is shared simultaneously, in two dimensions: with people in the
immediate vicinity as well as around the world via selfies and video
snaps multicast onto Social Media accounts of friends and others
for comment and feedback.
People entering the Art Exhibit are no longer visitors – they are
‘Visiting Artists’ instead, who are encouraged and enabled
by Robodrone and the Art Gallery to create and share new
Instaperformance Art as personalised artforms.
