In a change to Wyon’s Neoclassical style, his 1846 portrait was influenced by mid-19th Century ‘Neo-Gothic’; Queen Victoria wears a fashionable looped plait in her hair beneath the St Edward’s Crown which had been worn at coronations since the 13th Century, while the edge inscription is engraved in the ‘Blackletter’ style popular in carvings and literature from the Middle Ages.
