I don't care what anybody says, but I think these girls are very uniquely beautiful like their mother Queen Lovisa. ✨

The three unmarried daughter of the Crown Prince and Crown Princess of Denmark have been with us so recently some few notes on their private life may be interesting to readers. Princess Ingeborg who is eighteen, will now take her eldest sister’s place, and probably she will be much thrown into the society of her new sister-in-law, Princess Carl of Denmark. In appearance she is like her mother, the Crown Princess, having strongly marked features; Princess Thyra, who is more delicate, is sixteen, and little Princess Dagmar is ten. They live very simply, these young Danish royalties. During the winter, which they spend in Copenhagen, they sleigh and skate a great deal, and in the summer, at Fredensborg, their grandfather, the King of Denmark’s castle, they enjoy some very happy weeks with their English cousins, and those from Greece and Russia. They have tennis and boating parties, bicycling on the laws of the Schloss, picnics in the lovely woods, and fishing on the Esrom Lake. Their brothers are very fond of them, and they teach them all kinds of outdoor sports. Like all Danish ladies, these young Princesses excel in house work. They are capital dairy-maids, good cooks, and in fact they can, to use a homely phrase, turn their hands to anything.

Ingeborg Håkonsdatter
Ingebjørg Håkonsdatter (1301–1361) was a Norwegian princess and the only legitimate child of Håkon V Magnusson (r. 1299–1319) [...]. Ingebjørg was brought up at the Norwegian royal court until she married Erik Magnusson of Sweden, Duke of Södermanland, in 1312. This marriage was undoubtedly part of a broader political alliance as Håkon V supported Erik and his brother Valdemar in their struggle against their brother, King Birger Magnusson (r. 1290–1318). The early years of the marriage were relatively uneventful, and Ingebjørg gave birth to a son, Magnus Eriksson, in 1316.
In 1317, however, hostilities between Birger and the dukes broke out once more when Erik and Valdemar were imprisoned at Nyköping Castle at the king’s behest. Ingebjørg immediately sprang into action, mobilizing her husband’s allies and even negotiating with Danish aristocrats for military support against Birger and his ally, Erik VI Menved of Denmark. Dukes Erik and Valdemar were murdered in 1318, but Ingebjørg continued to act in her late husband’s name as duchess dowager. Danish and Swedish aristocrats launched several expeditions against the Swedish Crown, conquering most royal castles and forcing Birger into exile. After the death of Håkon V in 1319, Ingebjørg’s son Magnus acceded to the Norwegian throne, and he was also elected king of Sweden later the same year.
After she oversaw Birger’s deposition and secured her son’s election, Ingebjørg became one of the most powerful political figures in Sweden, and her power and influence in Norway remained considerable. She acted as the de facto leader of the Swedish royal council and controlled an expansive network of castles centered around her stronghold of Varberg. Ingebjørg also took many decisions as a territorial princess, perhaps best exemplified by her abortive expedition to Skåne in 1322, launched in conjunction with her favorite and future husband, the Danish aristocrat Knud Porse. Her uncompromising attitude and reliance on foreign favorites, however, led to growing opposition from the Swedish aristocracy, and her holdings were confiscated and her decision-making powers removed by the royal council in 1326. Following her fall from grace, Ingebjørg lived in close proximity to her son Magnus until she passed away in 1361.

Gathering of Danish and Swedish Royal Families.
At center you can see King Frederick VIII of Denmark, his sister Queen Alexandra, brother King George I of the Hellenes (with his granddaughter Maria Pavlovna the Younger), and sister Maria Feodorovna. Frederick married Louise of Sweden (behind him), and one of their daughters, Ingeborg, married back into the Swedish family herself. Two of her daughters, Margaretha and Martha, are seen here, but her most famous, Astrid, is not.

I have been looking high and low, trying to find a place where people can watch full episodes of Matador with English subtitles, and nope. Not a single place. Only small clips on their own. It's the biggest TV show in Denmark, so I'm surprised there's nothing about it outside of Denmark, and it's frustrating, because it is really, really good. I am this close to just write a translation for it myself.
Tumblr media
Honestly, I recommend this series to anybody that can get their hands on it. Especially in these times, where so many of Matador's themes are back in the mainstream and politics. Women's rights, the clashes between the old and the new, the rising Right Wing, the happenings of the WWII, religion, and later on in the series, a little bit of LGBTQ+. I rewatch this series almost very Christmas, and continue it up until January. It's truly amazing.
I hereby show you a scene from episode 5, which does in fact have English subtitles. This is one of the first "shake ups", the Varnæs family experience in the series, and as you can hear, Maude is not very happy about it, as Maude is married to Hans Christian (the head banker of Korsbæk bank) who is the brother of Jørgen Varnæs (lawyer in Korsbæk bank, part of the leading circle of the bank, and head of the conservative party).
One many themes of Matador is women's rights. The conservative housewives, believing in the old way of doing things, and their young and much more liberal daughters, who wants to decide for themselves. Though Minna used to be a conservative woman, her anger at what Jørgen has done to her, puts her in a position where she doesn't care what the world thinks of her - she wants revenge and she wants him to hurt.
youtube
As mentioned before, another theme is the clashes between the old and the new. In this scene from episode 9, Mrs. Fernando Møhge (Hans Christian and Jørgen's aunt), along with her daughter Misse Møhge, has gone to the bank in order to reatrive a paper. They have just vietnessed a building project on a fabric factory, funded by Mads Skjern, in order to expand his clothing store. But this build may not in fact be totally legal, and you are about to hear why. And, well, with Mads Skjern and his new buisness turning out to threaten the status of the old Varnæs family, the new banker Skjold-Hansen, suddenly sees a place where he can prove himself, and protect his money and the old bank.
youtube
But one argument that Mads Skjern brings up again and again through out the series is; what is best for the city? A park for Mrs. Møhge's dead husband, or a factory that will bring buisness and job opportunities? Is the old and dead more important then the living and working?
We then jump forward to episode 11, where Ellen Skjern (Mads' adopted daughter from his wife's - Ingeborg - first marriage) is getting a horse (an Icelandic horse) due to her good grades in school, when though that has always been Daniel's (Mads' son from his first marriage, with his first wife who died when Daniel was still a baby) dream. It is here that we learn, that even though Mads believe in bringing something new to the city of Korsbæk, he is still very conservative in his beliefs and oppinions, to the point where he's almost more curl than caring towards his family, though he believes he's doing what is best, to protect them against the old families of Korsbæk, not seeing how he is slowly tearing it apart himself.
youtube
Here, in episode 18, taking place in the second world war, we have probably one of the most famous moments from pig dealer Larsen's dog Kvik.
youtube
And finally, in episode 19, where the bike dealer's sons once again throw rocks at Skjold-Hansen's home, because he has leaned out his large parking house to the Germans.
youtube
Matador is to this day, one of the most watched shows in Denmark, and often recommended as one of the most important things to watch when moving to Denmark, or trying to learn the Danish language. My grandmother and both of my grandfathers, who would have turned 94 this year, was all born in 1931, and would there have remembered the time Matador takes place in. This was truly fun to watch with my grandmother, as to her it was nostalgia, but to me it was history.
History, story lines, character development, well thought out plot points. Truly amazing, and so much more deserving of praise from a larger audience.
