The last stencil piece I saw by Man-X was a rather cute west highland terrier painted at the entrance to Leonard Lane, so it was somewhat surprising to see this irreverent portrayal of Queen Elizabeth II sitting on a different kind of throne.

The portrait piece is a nicely worked five or six colour stencil, set within an oval frame, and is really rather unusual in many ways. The colours incorporate gold, which I guess is in part to represent the royal setting (golden throne). There is some extra fun in the detail, with the Queen reading a magazine entitled ‘Corgi’. Edgy and offensive to some, this piece is nicely executed, on a tricky stone surface.
