Tatler magazine's July issue celebrates Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee with a specially commissioned cover.
 

The oil painting is by Nigerian artist Oluwole Omofemi, who has infused his own style elements in the piece inspired by a 1950s portrait of the monarch.
 

Omofemi kept some elements of the original photo –  including the queen's George IV State Diadem tiara, Nizam of Hyderabad necklace and a sash adorned with the star of the Order of the Garter – but added other elements, including a bright yellow background and a floral pattern to the monarch's dress.
 

The photograph that Omofemi, 34, based his painting on dates from around the time of the Queen's 1956 visit to Nigeria, where the artist's grandfather had seen her as she drove past, waving to the crowds.
 

"Growing up, I heard a lot of good things about the Queen and how impactful she is — not just in the United Kingdom but to the Commonwealth and all over the world…She was so young, and yet she had already undertaken so much," Omofemi told the magazine.
