Royal Academy gives Queen 97 works of art as Diamond Jubilee gift We have one of the most important collections of drawings in the world but this adds a new dimension to it because we weren't very strong in contemporary works. It's a really transformative gift, something entirely new to us, and it allows us to do something we haven't done before. The Queen has seen photographs of all of the works and she is delighted. David Nash OBE RA, Yellow, 2012 (left) and Prof Tracey Emin RA, HRH Royal Britannia, 2012 (The Royal Collection) The collection includes a line drawing of the Queen by Emin, called HRH Royal Britannia, a drawing of the interior of Westminster Abbey by the sculptor John Maine, and an inkjet print of a drawing which Hockney did on an iPad. They range in size from Gillian Ayres' Festive I, which is 32 inches (81cm) across, to a four-inch (10cm) wood engraving of the Olympic Stadium by Anne Desmet. Grayson Perry RA, Design for Kenilworth AM1 (The Royal Collection) Asked if he had a favourite, Mr Clayton said: "The one that everyone swoons over is the Anish Kapoor because it's so, so beautiful." He said it was impossible to say how much the collection is worth, though it would run into many millions of pounds. The collection includes works by 36 painters, 23 sculptors, 19 architects, six engravers, six print makers and one draughtsman. Christopher Le Brun PRA, The Complete Journey, 2011 (The Royal Collection) Charles Saumarez Smith, chief executive of the Royal Academy of Arts, said: "We are proud of our royal heritage and feel privileged to be able to mark this historic occasion." The Queen, who is the Patron of the Royal Academy, was given a portfolio of works to mark her Coronation in 1953 and to mark her Silver Jubilee in 1977. The Genius of Castiglione and The Royal Academy Diamond Jubilee Gift will be at the Queen's Gallery, Buckingham Palace, from November 1, 2013 to March 16, 2014.
