Norwegian Royal Family attends opening of the new National Museum
Today, King Harald, Queen Sonja, Crown Prince Haakon, and Crown Princess Mette-Marit attended the opening of the new National Museum in Oslo. The Museum is the Nordic region’s largest art museum.
In her speech, Queen Sonja said: “Today we all get a new house, and art gets a new home. A building where dreams could arise at the same moment as the Crown Princess and I laid the foundation stone six years ago. […]We own all this together. And the National Museum manages it for us - so that people in a hundred years' time can glide along with the works of art and perhaps feel a sense of belonging with us who lived today. This is a community I hope everyone wants to take part in. And now we have a place to be. We have got a house, art has got a home. A home that embraces us all, the whole nation.”
Queen Sonja wore a blue suit with a matching hat and clutch. Crown Princess Mette-Marit wore her Valentino dress with a black coat, her Christian Louboutin pumps, a repeated clutch, and her Cartier ring.
