She turned 90 in April — and marked the occasion with celebrations throughout her realm. But as the year of Queen Elizabeth II‘s big birthday draws to a close, he milestone is being honored one final time.
A new photograph of the Queen and Prince Charles was released by the British Monarchy on Saturday — taken specifically to commemorate her birthday.
In the portrait, taken by photographer Nick Knight, the Queen sits on a gold chair, wearing a patterned, long-sleeve blue dress. Her hands folded at her waist, she looks elegant and stoic — her three-strand pearl necklace and matching earrings slightly catching the light.
