Post subject: Three royal treasures that shed light on the monarchy
Then again, that's Buckingham Palace for you. George IV's opulent makeover of his father's central London residence into a lavish palace fit for a Prince Regent is at once full of magnificent things whilst being brazenly over the top. It is also fascinating, and every object within it tells the story of its royal residents.
While making The Art of Monarchy for BBC Radio 4, I found myself in the White Drawing Room. As State reception rooms go, it is way out there. Think King Midas meets Goldfinger.

Will's BBC Radio 4 series The Art of Monarchy starts Saturday 11 February, 1030 GMT
It's an in-depth look at objects in the royal collection, built up over 1,000 years

Or catch up on iPlayer
Everything is golden: sofas, piano, wallpaper, chairs, mirrors, tables, screens, candelabra and even the fireguard. It is George IV at his most theatrical, mixing shimmering splendour with questionable taste.
