這幅爭議性的作品原先是爲龐克樂隊性手槍的同名專輯封面而製作的。通過對國旗上的英國女王肖像進行大膽的勒索信式拼貼,藝術家向英國最高權威形象進行挑戰和嘲弄。
This controversial image is originally created for a notorious punk band Sex Pistols’ album of the same name. Featuring ransom notes on the photograph of Queen Elizabeth on top of a Union flag, Reid poses a direct challenge to the most recognizable authority in the UK. 

傑米·里德
英國藝術家和無政府主義者。他的作品通常以勒索信字體的形式從報紙頭條上剪下字母進行拼貼爲特色。很大程度上,他幾乎定義了英國朋克搖滾的視覺形象。

Jamie Reid
English artist and self-described anarchist. His work, featuring letters cut from newspaper headlines in the style of a ransom note, came close to defining the image of punk rock, particularly in the UK.
