Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh 1921-2021
He was a hugely impressive man in person, who’s public persona belied a fierce intelligence, quick humour and seemingly endless curiosity. Very happy memories of sittings at Buckingham Palace back in 2006

Hands are a 3 dimensional jigsaw puzzle. Occasionally the pieces fall into place easily but usually they don’t. Maybe it’s because the shape is less important than the movement they imply and what they say about their owner..?
