The Queen in Decades
The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee represents the perfect time for us to look back over seven decades of impeccable rule by Elizabeth II.
Even now, at 96, Elizabeth still undertakes her seemingly endless list of public and private duties with consummate ease, and to begin the long process of
preparations in the lead-up to her century milestone in 2026, we have compiled a collection of images of the Queen on every decade of her life.
