German artist Ingeborg zu Schleswig-Holstein is holding an exhibition at Beijing’s Today Art Museum until April 12. She is a cousin of Britain’s Prince Charles and her European royal blood connection has drawn added attention to her show.
She is not the only artist with a royal background however. There are several, such as Prince Philip and Prince Charles from Britain, Danish Queen Margrethe II, Emperor Qian Long, Emperor Huizong, Emperor Yuan and the Empress Dowager from China.
