See in different comment sections of various news sites this has been getting a right slagging off. Thoughts?

She looks about 20 years older than she is!

Her MUM doesn't look that bad

 

[Kumquat]

Paintings quite often cause controversy like this, take it or leave it as it's the artist's interpretation. If you want accuracy, take a photograph.

Fair enough, I know all art is subjective but I do find it strange he interpreted her this way.

Statues are usually more accurate. If only I could find an example.

I am not sure touching would have been appropriate.

Looks fat in the face is why 20 years older I think. Dreadful portrait

 

[dingodan]

It looks like they soured her face up a little so she looks like the Queen.
