為慶祝英女皇登基60周年鑽禧紀念，杜莎夫人蠟像館特別為女皇製作了一個價值15萬鎊（約187萬港元）的新蠟像，彰顯出她與生俱來的尊貴及皇者風範。

　　實際上，這是女皇在位60年間製作的第23個蠟像，乃至今最栩栩如生的一個。

　　以前的蠟像顯得相形見拙，大多是蓬鬆的捲髮，配以帶有不祥預感的表情。$ Q) g7 o( Z4 a$ ~8 A

　　不過，最新的蠟像根據今年初官方發布的女皇鑽禧紀念照片重新製作，顯得「較為溫柔及熱情」。

But a new waxwork of the Queen unveiled by Madame Tussauds yesterday to mark her Diamond Jubilee still manages to capture her innate dignity and sense of majesty.公仔箱論壇5 s* g# o. g% W

In fact the £150,0000 figure - the 23rd to have been created in her sixty year reign - is, without a shadow of doubt, the most lifelike yet.

Family affair: The Queen's updated waxwork can be found in the Royal room alongside a youthful-looking Prince Philip, whose waxwork was not given a makeover to bring it up to date, and the other members of the Royal family, including the recently revealed statues of William and Kate公仔箱論壇& K0 Y+ m* f" K' ]

Others images have been rather less successful, giving the queen a rather bouffant set of curls - and a decidedly foreboding expression.

The latest mannequin, however, recreates the image of the head of state from her official Diamond Jubilee photographs released earlier this year.TVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。% D/ @5 }+ y6 ~3 m

Wearing a pure white silk, satin and lace dress covered with silver-coloured sequins and bearing a subtle scalloped hem, her gown is a detailed replica of the State Dress designed by Angela Kelly, her senior dresser and personal assistant.

Miss Kelly personally advised the Tussauds team who made a replica of the gown.

On her head is the State Diadem, a circlet of diamonds, created in 1820. The Queen wears this during the procession to and from the State Opening of Parliament, and wore it on her Coronation Day in 1953, for the procession to Westminster Abbey.os.tvboxnow.com: ]4 G! l: I% m3 J

Her jewellery also provides a touching link with the past and includes her great-great grandmother Queen Victoria’s Collet Necklace which has been worn by five generations of Royal Ladies - Queen Victoria, Queen Alexandra, Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother and the present Queen. Queen Victoria wore this necklace for her own official Diamond Jubilee photograph, issued in 1897.tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb+ z9 o6 G' {; b$ f0 o& z$ D

Sculptor Steve Swales created the new figure and was part of a team of 20 that worked for four months to create a lifelike depiction of one of the most famous women in the world.
Mr Swales used measurements taken when the sovereign sat for him in 2001, the date of her last wax work, as well as recent photographs.

The new figure is the latest addition to Madame Tussauds’ royal collection, which also features hugely popular models of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, unveiled last month, the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Harry and the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall.公仔箱論壇& u5 y- Q9 @6 ^
