Albert's plan forBuckinghamPalaceincluded newlighting, new heating and new rooms. Most impressive of all was a vast newballroom.


Victoria and Albert loved dancing, and this room was built tohost entertainments on an epic 1 scale. It was the biggest room in all ofBritain. Theoriginal decor is now hidden behind this tasteful but rather more bland 2 whiteand gold. But in Albert and Victoria's time, it was all the colours of therainbow. The walls were lined with crimson 3 silks and there were frescoes 4 withdancing figures all around the top. You have to imagine it not as it is now,but in glorious Technicolor.


At the time, Albert's decorative 5 scheme was hailed as atriumph, andBuckinghamPalacewas called theheadquarters of taste.
