Westminster Abbey

Westminster Abbey

Lucy Loveheart was commissioned by Westminster Abbey to paint this famous Royal place of worship. In her painting , she has depicted Westminster Abbey with the river Thames behind, and Big Ben proudly standing to the left. Floating in the deep blue sky above are a host of angels, representing some of the many famous national figures honoured here, including the Bronte sisters, Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Shakespeare and Isaac Newton. In the foreground are Queen Elizabeth 1st and Queen Elizabeth 2nd.  Since painting this picture, the Queen sadly passed away so this image is now imbued with a layer of poignant remembrance.
