4. Jubilee Banner of half a million buttons
Ann was inspired to decorate the banner with buttons by the tradition of a very different kind of royalty, the Pearly Kings and Queens of London's east end who have been embellishing their magnificent suits with pearl buttons since the mid 19th century. Limited edition prints of the original artwork ‘The Royal Jubilee Banner’ are available from www.anncarrington.co.uk
