凯特王妃在英国国家肖像馆肖像慈善晚宴上的讲话

Remarks by HRH The Duchess of Cambridge at the National Portrait Gallery Gala Dinner

11th February 2014

I just wanted to say how delighted I am to be here this evening to celebrate the fantastic work of The National Portrait Gallery.

The Gallery’s achievements are exceptional. They hold the most extensive collection of portraits in the world, and their unique and brilliant exhibitions never fail to inspire us all.

But, it is more than simply a world renowned visitor’s attraction – the Gallery’s outreach and research programmes makes it one of the leading centres for the important study into Portraiture.

I simply could not be more proud to be its Patron.

Thank you for being here tonight and showing your support. I hope that you all have a wonderful evening.
