A bust-length photographic portrait of HM Queen Elizabeth II looking to the front, smiling. She wears a blue bouclé jacket , Queen Victoria's diamond and pearl brooch and a three-strand pearl necklace. Taken in the Ballroom, Buckingham Palace.
The fashion photographer Rankin was one of the artists who contributed to the Golden Jubilee portfolio, released in 2002. His portrait appears to be shot at close-range and uses a dramatic angle which makes the viewer feel as if they are kneeling before The Queen, as if in homage or about to be knighted.
