A new photographic exhibition is to open on the day Britain’s Queen Elizabeth celebrates becoming the nation’s longest-reigning monarch.
The outdoor show will be held at Buckingham Palace, the Queen’s London home, as well as Windsor Castle and the Palace of Holyroodhouse on September 9th, it has been announced.
The exhibition, which has been titled Long To Reign Over Us, will feature official portraits and images of the Queen from 1952 to the present day.
What’s more, it will include previously seen informal photographs of the monarch and her family.
The most recent image set to be featured in the exhibition will be this year’s Order of the Garter procession at Windsor in June.
Meanwhile, it was recently confirmed Queen Elizabeth will mark becoming the longest reigning monarch by opening a railway line.
Keith Brown, Cabinet Secretary for Infrastructure in the Scottish Government, said: "It is a great honour for us that Her Majesty has chosen to mark this milestone by leading the celebrations for the opening of the Borders Railway.
"The people of the Borders and Midlothian have waited almost half a century to see the return of their railway and it is fitting that these two such historic events coincide."
