She is depicted in a three quarter view, slightly smiling, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara, familiar from the Arnold Machin series of British coins issued until 1984.
The modernist, almost Pop Art, image is also reminiscent of Jamie Reid's cover of the Sex Pistols second single "God Save the Queen", released in 1977.
Hirst made the painting after he was approached by the Government Art Collection, which was seeking a second Hirst painting to add to the single example already in its collection: the 2004 spot painting Pardaxin, acquired from White Cube in 2005 (the collection also holds two Hirst screenprints: an untitled work acquired in 1997, and Tulip Varieties acquired in 2018).
As Hirst supports the collection's aims but his expensive paintings were beyond the official budget (similar works have sold for millions of pounds) he made a new spin painting specifically for the collection which was presented to the British government in 2015 by the artist's charity, Victim.
Other portraits by Hirst include a similar spin painting of Lionel Messi, entitled Beautiful Messi Spin Painting For One In Eleven, which was auctioned at Sotheby's in 2015 for £365,000 to raise funds for UNICEF's "1 in 11" campaign to support primary education, and a portrait of George Michael, entitled Beautiful Beautiful George Michael Love Painting, sold at a charity auction in 2017 for $580,000 to raise funds for the Goss-Michael Foundation.
