“I am impressed by the surprising ways Queen Elizabeth II has become a cultural Icon. It's the face of distant historic authority, a literal figurehead, having no real power but a symbolic supremacy. In this portrait, Queen Elizabeth is surrounded by famous London's place : St Paul's Cathedral, Big Ben, London Bridge, London Eye, Carnaby Street and also David Bowie's portrait and a famous Banksy's graffiti, creating a unique and magical decor that reinforces her main qualities: consistency and longevity.”
