Another work by the late Mark Dennis

 When The Queen was approaching the point when she would overtake Queen Victoria as our longest serving monarch, Very Rev Sir Iain Torrance, then Dean of the Chapel Royal in Scotland, approached Mark and asked if he could possibly devise a card celebrating the event which he could send HM from the Chaplains to The Queen in Scotland.  

They agreed on a cartoon-style foot race, with The Queen overtaking Queen Victoria but with the road continuing a long way into the future.  

This is what Mark produced and The Queen was amused by his surprise caricature of Sir Iain holding the finishing tape.
