Britain's Princess Anne is visiting the Library of Congress in Washington to open a new exhibition marking the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta as a landmark declaration of rights and liberties.

The daughter of Queen Elizabeth II will preside over a ceremony Thursday that will celebrate the historic document's influence that eventually led to the constitutional rights written by the Founding Fathers of the United States.

No need to practice those curtsies — it's a relatively low-key visit to Washington for Princess Anne, who was at the Library of Congress on Thursday for the opening of an exhibit celebrating the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta.

Queen Elizabeth II's daughter cut the ribbon to the display (they must have a whole class in Princess School for ribbon-cutting) and made a few remarks to a crowd that included British ambassador Peter Westmacott and library officials.
