About this listen

"The Queen: Art and Image", now on view at the National Portrait Gallery in London, makes a lot of claims for itself. The blurb on the gallery web-site tells one that by “exploring the startling range of artistic creativity that the Queen has inspired, the exhibition also reveals the radical changes in portraiture and profound developments since the 1950s.” It goes on to list some of the supposedly distinguished painters and photographers who have, during her long reign, produced likenesses of Elizabeth II. The list includes Pietro Annigoni, Andy Warhol, Lucian Freud, and Gerhard Richter among the painters, and Cecil Beaton, Annie Leibovitz, and Thomas Struth among the photographers.
