[forwards4all] Princess Diana's life in wallpaper

Princess Diana's life in wallpaper
She was the most photographed woman of her time – but this is a rather more off-the-wall way of remembering her life. Sketches based on iconic images of the late Diana, Princess of Wales, have been turned into wallpaper inside the royal residence that was once her home. The display is part of a £12million restoration of Kensington Palace in London. Beautiful tribute: The stylish wallpaper is made of up delicate drawings based on famous photos of the late princess. Shy young Lady: Diana wears a cute jumper on a country walk with Prince Charles in May 1981, shortly before their marriage. Purple Princess: Shining in a fuchsia chiffon dress by Catherine Walker, Diana looks confident and glamorous non a tour of Thailand. Just married: Diana looks almost ghostly in this barely-there drawing of her wedding day on illustrator Julie Verhoeven's wallpaper. Soulful eyes: A sultry Diana poses for top photographer Mario Testino in Vanity Fair magazine in 1997, not long before her tragic death. Motherly love: The Princess of Wales cradles newborn William in June 1982, as they leave St Mary's Hospital in Paddington. Bashful in a bow: The Princess looks ethereal at a charity concert at the Victoria & Albert Museum in November 1981. Demure in blue: The royal couple announce their engagement in February 1981, as she wears the ring that now belongs to the Duchess of Cambridge. Stylish elegance: The princess wears a Victor Edelstein dress and pearls for a trip to Hamburg in November 1987. Illustrated history: The life of the people's princess now adorns the walls of Kensington Palace, left, and her famous dresses are being exhibited. Memories: The black silk taffeta worn by Princess Diana at her first official engagement with the Prince of Wales in 1981 is also on display. Grand heritage: Queen Victoria's dresses, including the one pictured left, are also on display at the newly refurbished palace.

Artist's mirrored sculptures reflect changing landscapes
Contemporary artist Rob Mulholland designed a series of six mirrored figures that are camouflaged amongst the woods at the David Marshall Lodge in Scotland. The life-sized 'invisible' figures have been dubbed the 'Predator' effect after the 1987 film where an alien life form seamlessly blends into its surroundings.
