Description

Magnificent, oversized, autographed royal presentation portraits of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, taken by Antony Armstrong-Jones

Magnificent pairing of oversized official photogravure portraits, both taken by Antony Armstrong-Jones and printed by Raphael Tuck & Sons of England: a marvelous vintage matte-finish 21 x 27.5 photogravure portrait of Queen Elizabeth II at full length, clad in the Crown Jewels, nicely signed in the lower border in fountain pen, "Elizabeth R, 1959"; and a superb vintage matte-finish 21 x 27.5 photogravure portrait of Prince Philip standing in his decorated uniform, nicely signed in the lower border in fountain pen, "Philip, 1959." Individually framed to 22.75 x 29. In fine condition, with Elizabeth's signature a few shades light, but completely legible. A particularly stunning pair of oversized royal presentation portraits, as the photographer—Antony Armstrong-Jones—would become Queen Elizabeth's brother-in-law one year later when he married Princess Margaret.
