Los cien cuadros del rey Jorge

El quinceañero rey Jorge era raro. A diferencia del resto de jóvenes, no le gustaba la cacería y las fiestas le aburrían. Pero amaba la música, el teatro y cabalgar solo. Disfrazado, se mezclaba con sus súbditos para conocer de cerca cómo vivían. Y, sobre todo, le encantaba leer. Como su deber era tener un heredero, anhelaba encontrar una mujer con quien casarse por amor, pues creía era el único sentimiento que hace posible la felicidad.

Fifteen-year-old King George was weird. Unlike the rest of the youngsters, he did not like hunting and parties bored him. But he loved music, theater and riding alone. Disguised, he mixed with his subjects to learn about how they lived. And, above all, he loved to read. As his duty was to have an heir, he longed to find a woman to marry for love, because he believed it was the only feeling that makes happiness possible.
