Whilst there, the young Princesses took part in a series of pantomimes held in the Waterloo Chamber to raise money for the Royal Household Wool Fund, which supplied yarn to make blankets for soldiers fighting at the Front. During the war the series of portraits that usually lined the walls of the Waterloo Chamber were removed from their frames for safe keeping. In their place, 16 ‘pantomime’ pictures were commissioned. Characters including Cinderella, Puss in Boots and Peter Pan were recreated on rolls of wallpaper. After the war, the original portraits by Sir Thomas Lawrence were returned to the Waterloo Chamber, and the pantomime pictures remained hidden beneath them. They have been revealed just once since the war, following the fire of 1992. Until now... The Royal Residences have today reopened to the public with full safety measures in place, and visitors to Windsor Castle will be able to see the wartime pantomime pictures newly revealed in the Waterloo Chamber.
