Royal Animals explores the longstanding relationship between animals and the British monarchy, focusing on the lives of some of the most memorable, weird, and wonderful creatures ever to grace the royal court. Designed to accompany a special exhibition being mounted at the Summer Opening of Buckingham Palace in 2020, this book explores the ceremonial function of animals, their agricultural role, and the historical practice of presenting animals as diplomatic gifts. Seldom-seen works of art from the Royal Collection bring to life ponies, dogs, horses, and birds, as well as the rare breeds and royal menageries that have been the companions and favorites of royalty through the ages. With over one hundred color images, Royal Animals is a perfect gift for animal lovers and royal aficionados alike.
