This is the exquisite portrait of the Grimaldi Family commissioned in 1981 by Princess Grace. This is the version was used on 1981 Grimaldi Christmas card. Sadly it was the last Princess Grace card sent by the family……the Princess passed in Sept. 1982.

However the original portrait, by American artist Ralph Wolfe Cowan , is in “living” colour , and is displayed in the Throne Room of
Palace in Monaco. It is a gigantic canvas *48 x 84" .

As they say in Monaco “C'est Magnifique ” !
