Thanks for the bigger, watermark-free picture Squidy!
I know that you and Marengo and others were commenting in the previous thread that Lucas looked a little bit like Professor Pieter van Vollenhoven and in this picture I thin there is definitely a resemblance.
I wonder if anyone might have a picture of Professor van Vollenhoven when he was younger as a contrast?
For those of you who'd like to see some great footage of this family 'in motion', (forgive me if this's been posted before), but click on this link,
http://www.rtl.nl/actueel/rtlboulevard/video/
and scroll all the way down to where it says : "Maurits en Marilene"
it's a video about this family's visit to a children's theatre play about a mouse, but has some other great footage too. It's only a minute or so. At the end of it, in the theater, a reporter first asks Anna whether she's scared of mice and her answer is 'yes'. After that, they ask little Lucas for his opinion, and his answer is a decided "no". I much recommend this little video, especially since Lucas is soooo very very cute. Photos really don't do him justice!
The video's voice-over also comments on how approachable and friendly Marilene and Maurits are, and they interview a celebrity photographer (paparazzo) who says these two are so friendly and without pretense, other royals/subjects should take a page from these two.
(One little warning though, and that is that this link won't work after it's been posted on rtl's site for over a month I believe. So if you want to watch it, do it within the next weeks!)
