Queen Elizabeth II (painting)

  • ... that passersby were surprised to see Queen Elizabeth II in Henry Ward's Ontario garage? Source: "Sometimes when I opened the garage door, the wind blew the sheet on the painting up and people walking past caught a glimpse of the Queen and did a double take." ([1])
    • ALT1:... that in a recent portrait, the Queen is depicted with someone else's bust? Source: "In the background can be seen a bust of the founder of the International Committee of the Red Cross, Henry Dunant" (link as above)

Created by Ritchie333 (talk), Philafrenzy (talk), and Whispyhistory (talk). Nominated by Ritchie333 (talk) at 10:33, 18 April 2019 (UTC).

  • Symbol confirmed.svg Article is in date, long enough (just) and well sourced. The hooks check out in the sources - I personally like the first one for quirkiness. QPQ done. Looks good to go. Spokoyni (talk) 13:59, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
What could be more quirky than a woman being painted with someone else's bust? EEng 15:48, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
The Queen hanging out in a Canadian garage. Spokoyni (talk) 17:33, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
Nothing new about that but in the unfortunate event we go in that direction, I'd suggest
ALT2 ... that passersby spotted Queen Elizabeth II in an Ontario garage?
