As a tribute to the 'Grande Dame' of the Nobel ceremony, and on the sad occasion of not seeing her attend this year, here's a review of Princess Lilian of Sweden through the Nobel years.
With Queen Silvia and the Queen's parents in 1981:

This thread is for Nobel years which don't have their own thread (only 2002, 2003 and 2004 does). I felt that it was needed since I have pics that I want to share from past Nobel years, so I will post them here. This can also be a conclusive thread for things to do with past Nobel things (historically, questions etc).
First, some historical pictures:
King Gustaf VI Adolf in 1948 (Corbis)
1) I suppose it was 1948 since I wrote it was and was ony following the year given in the picture's caption. That is King Gustaf VI Adolf, but of course at the time he was not King yet, perhaps I should've cleared that out by posting his correct title at the time. I suppose he stood in for King Gustav V who might've been to poorly to attend, just like King Carl XVI Gustaf did for his grandfather.Dear GrandDuchess, I would deeply appreciate some feedback in reference to that picture:
1) If the year was 1948, then King Gustav VI Adolf was still the Heir to the Throne, but I do not see the King
2) Is the person to Gustav VI Adolf's right Louise Mountbatten?
3) Is the person next to her Prince Bertil?
Here´s a photo of prince Bertil and Infanta Cristina from Spain at the Nobel banquet 1990

Perhaps because Octavio Paz (Mexican) was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature?Silvia❦CarlGustaf;702786 said:Does someone know, why Infanta Christina of Spain attended the nobel-banquet in 1990?
who is this lady?

Does anyone know why Queen Silvia did not attend the 1980 Nobel Prizes?
She had flu. Princess Desirée Baroness Silfverschiöld (3:rd sister of the King) replaced her at short notice
There are more than one kind of flu and different intensity. Why would 1980 have any impact on 2012?Thank you. I didn't think that as she was sick at the 2012 Nobel Prizes but still attended.
