Pop-up display: Artist in Residence
From the website of Household Cavalry Artist in Residence, Rob Pointon:
HOUSEHOLD CAVALRY RESIDENCY
Throughout 2021 and 2022 Rob is the Artist in Residence for The Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment. The project’s purpose is to document a year in the life of the Regiment and raise funds for The Household Cavalry Foundation.
Rob has been present painting live at every major state event of the ceremonial season resulting in a series of unique moments captured in oils. Indeed, the project was even briefed to Her Majesty the Queen in advance of the 2021 Queen’s Birthday Parade and resulted in him being personally invited by her to paint the parade from her private quarters within Windsor Castle.
Not since Terrence Cuneo has an artist been given such unrestricted access to the Regiment’s activities.
