The Queen of Denmark has taken her turn away from royal duties to pursue an unexpected talent of hers: set design. Queen Margrethe II, commander-in-chief of the Danish Defense, will provide set designs for 'Ehrengard,' a Netflix fantasy film from Danish Oscar winner Bille August, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The film is based on a book by Karen Blixen, and set in the fairytale kingdom of Babenhausen as it follows the story of a young, self-appointed love expert who is hired to secure an heir for the kingdom's Crown Prince. “The Queen has created the most fantastic decoupages for the occasion, and they will be the dominant feature of the film’s overall scenographic expression,” August said in a statement. The Queen herself said, "Karen Blixen’s stories have always fascinated me, with their aesthetic tales, their imagination and their, to me, image-creating worlds – and I’m very happy to be part of this project." Though this might be surprising to some, the Danish queen has long been known as a talented painter and illustrator, though under the pseudonym Ingahild Grathmer. She provided drawings for Danish editions of 'The Lord of the Rings' back in the early 1970s, and she has designed costumes for various productions, from the Royal Danish Ballet to Danish films and TV shows.
