In pictures: Queen is given a diamond gleam by Chris Levine portrait

A portrait of the Queen by artist Chris Levine as part of the Diamond Jubilee celebrations incorporates a diadem created by the jewellers Asprey.

The diadem includes 1,000 white brilliant cut diamonds, and is a recreation of the original worn by the Queen during her Coronation in 1953.
