The Royal collection, which was officially opened by the Deputy Bailiff William Bailhache at the Jersey Arts Centre last night, traces the six official visits the Queen has made to Jersey over the last 60 years.
Mr Bailhache thanked the many people who had worked on the exhibition that he described as ‘a real mix of visual recordings of Her Majesty’s visit to the Island’.
On display in the exhibition are photographs from the JEP’s archive of the Queen’s six visits as well as four oil paintings commissioned by the States to mark the Silver Jubilee in 1977and the Royal visits of 1978, 1989 and 2000.
