In the official portrait, Her Majesty is pictured sitting behind her desk in Windsor Castle’s Green Drawing Room with a Christmas tree providing the perfect seasonal backdrop.
For the yearly portrait, the Queen dressed in a suitably regal blue dress by go-to designer Angela Kelly with a string of pearls and sapphire brooch, originally gifted to Queen Victoria by husband Prince Albert, to finish.
As per previous years, the Queen also ensured that she had framed family portraits on display.
This festive season, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s leaked Christmas card photograph is proudly on display alongside a photograph of her late father, King George VI, delivering his own Christmas radio broadcast back in 1944.
A portrait of husband the Duke of Edinburgh also bagged a spot with a snap of Prince Charles and Duchess of Cornwall beside it.
But royal enthusiasts were quick to note that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are absent from the collection despite their debut Christmas photograph as a family-of-three doing the social media rounds.
Last year, a family portrait taken to commemorate Prince Charles’ 70th birthday stood on the mantelpiece with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex playing a starring role.
