Collection: Platinum Jubilee Collection
Our latest Club Project is in commemoration of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee. The Queen is to become the first monarch to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee after 70 years of service. The Lawyers Arts Club have commissioned this artwork to celebrate the Queen as the head of the Commonwealth in this illustrious year for Birmingham as we host the Commonwealth Games 2022 this summer.
Resident artist Harri Hampson has recreated the badge for the Platinum Jubilee with a homage to the Royal Standard of the United Kingdom flag. Hand illustrated text reads 'Platinum Jubilee' and 'Elizabeth II' The silver cross in the middle of the badge is a reference to the Birmingham coat of arms which was the inspiration behind the artwork. The Queen's portrait has been illustrated over the badge in the same format as Her Majesty graces our currency.
This artwork comes in six different colour ways. The six colours chosen by the artist are significant, as the colours red, yellow, green, blue, white and purple are all featured in British insignia, emblems, badges, crests and flags.
