At the State dinner, the Queen began her speech by saying “Úachtárain agus a chairde,” Irish for “President and friends.” Mary McAleese (right), Ireland’s president at the time, was visibly impressed. Moreover, the Queen was praised for her pronunciation.

More art created by Queen Victoria

To mark Queen Elizabeth II’s diamond jubilee, lego has created a lego inspired image of Queen Elizabeth II and Buckingham Palace. This isn’t the first time lego has made an image of the Queen. The lego figure of the Queen is wearing white, wearing a blue sash — the Garter Riband — and with real diamonds dotting the crown sitting atop her grey curls.
