: After reading an article in The Australian
: this Monday, it seems it will be a very
: relaxed portrait all about inner self and
: showing a more personal view of HM. Not
: sure how he will achieve this with a one
: hour sitting. I am not holding my breath for
: lots of jewels and formal decorations but we
: never know.

: Oh this is good news, Nellie! A very welcome
: development indeed!
:
: I suspect, though I may be wrong, that the
: Queen wore Queen Victoria's diamond collet
: necklace and earrings. I wonder if a tiara
: was worn.
:
: The mentioning of robes interests me. As
: it's an Australian portrait, I can't see the
: Queen being painted in her Garter robes so
: possibly an ermine robe?
:
: I do hope the Queen wore her Order of
: Australia sovereigns insignia.
:
: Can't wait to see it.
