Photograph of Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022) seated in the centre of a group with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren in the Green Drawing Room, Windsor Castle. From left to right are: James Viscount Severn (b. 2007); Lady Louise Windsor (b. 2003); Mia Tindall (b. 2014), holding the queen's handbag; Princess Charlotte of Cambridge (b. 2015), seated on the queen's lap; Savannah Phillips (b. 2010); Prince George of Cambridge (b. 2013) and Isla Phillips (b. 2012).
In 2007, Annie Leibovitz became the first American to make an official portrait of the Queen Elizabeth II, ahead of her State Visit to the United States of America. The photographer was called upon once again almost ten years later to create a series of portraits to mark the queen’s 90th birthday, including this photograph. Six portraits were released to the public, some of which were exclusively published in the summer issue of Vanity Fair.Provenance
