‘Show your friends and colleagues your admiration for Britain’s greatest ever living monarch with this deluxe lesbian watersports fetish tableau.’
Queen Vic depicts the English monarch engaged in what seems to be an indecorous sexual act. Indeed, she is sitting on the face of another woman, a direct shot at Queen Victoria’s anti-gay beliefs. Both characters are realized in Banksy’s black and white stencil style against a regal red background. Queen Victoria is presented in full regalia with her crown and scepter, and the unexpected addition of suspenders, knee-high leather boots and a short skirt that exposes her upper thigh. Her partner is also wearing suspenders and high heels, her arms thrown back in submission. Queen Victoria, England’s monarch from 1837 until her death in 1901, allegedly stated publicly during her rein that “women cannot be gay,” and passed anti-gay laws to support this belief.
