The 90th birthday of His Royal Highness Prince Philip (on 10 June 2011) is
marked by a special exhibition at Windsor Castle, the home of The Duke of
Edinburgh and The Queen for nearly 60 years. The exhibition brings
together photographs, memorabilia, paintings and gifts selected from the Royal
Collection, the Royal Archives and The Duke’s personal collection to
illustrate key moments in His Royal Highness’s life. It also
reflects Prince Philip’s many interests, from carriage driving to painting and
design, as well as his extensive work as patron or president of 800
organisations, including the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme.
