ROYAL EDINBURGH GALLERY NOW OPEN The new Queen's Gallery at the Palace of Holyroodhouse, Edinburgh - Queen Elizabeth II's official Scottish residence - opened to the public on November 30. The first exhibition is "Leonardo da Vinci: the Divine and the Grotesque" (Nov. 30 - March 30, 2003) - the largest exhibition of his work ever held in Scotland. All 68 works, examining his life-long obsession with the human form, are from the Royal Collection, which has the world's finest group of Leonardo drawings. The £3 million Scottish gallery, built in the shell of the former Holyrood Free Church and the Duchess of Gordon's School, follows the opening last May of a new, enlarged Queen's Gallery at Buckingham Palace in London. The Edinburgh gallery will open daily, admission adult £4, under 17 £2, concessions £3. Website:www.royal.gov.uk
