King Felipe and Queen Letizia deliver 2018 and 2019 Gold Medals of Merit in Fine Arts
Today, King Felipe and Queen Letizia handed out the 2018 and 2019 Gold Medals of Merit in Fine Arts at the Royal Palace in Madrid.
The medals recognize the people and entities that have distinguished themselves in the field of artistic creation by promoting the teaching, development, and dissemination of art or the conservation of the national artistic heritage.
In his speech honoring the recipient, King Felipe said: “The Culture eased the hard months of lockdowns. The series, the movies made loneliness more bearable; music accompanied us at all times; books opened up broader and brighter horizons for us; museums, theater, and concert halls allowed us to attend exhibitions and premieres through the Internet. Even the spontaneous creation or the discovery of unknown talents had their space and impact.”
Queen Letizia wore her Hugo Boss ‘Dadoria’ sheath dress with her Prada beige pumps. She paired the outfit with her Coolook earrings and Karen Hallam gold ring.
