It was created by artist Jean-Marc Prouveur who was still photographer on the film set, and would later go on to have a career photographing and creating short films about male sexuality.\r\n\r\nDirected in 1978, the film had a cast featuring the punk actress and model Jordan, Adam Ant, Toyah Wilcox and Little Nell (famous for her rôle in <i>The Rocky Horror Picture Show</i> (1975)). It also featured appearances by Wayne County, the dancer and choreographer Lindsay Kemp, and Steve Severin and Siouxsie Sioux of Siouxsie and the Banshees. The film concerns Queen Elizabeth I who has been transported to a bleak and decrepit contemporary Britain (reflecting the decline of 1970s Britain), to find Queen Elizabeth II dead after a mugging, and Buckingham Palace taken over by a group of punks who have turned it into a recording studio. History is being rewritten by subversives and a gang of misfits take part in mass violence, sexual depravity and anarchy. <i>Jubilee</i> represents a stylised contemporary account of the impact of the punk movement in Britain.\r\n\r\nJordan is a model and actress noted for her work with Vivienne Westwood and the SEX boutique on King's Road, Chelsea, in the late 1970s. She was a fixture at many of the early Sex Pistols' performances and her style and fashion sense made her an icon of the London punk scene.","physicalDescription":"Gypsum plaster life mask painted with geometric lines, pink areas and red lips.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Prouveur, Jean-Marc","id":"A36915"},"association":{"text":"artist","id":"AAT25103"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"gypsum plaster","id":"AAT14925"},{"text":"paint","id":"AAT15029"}],"techniques":[{"text":"moulding","id":"x46876"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Gypsum plaster moulded and set over the face of Jordan, and painted when dry.","categories":[{"text":"Entertainment & Leisure","id":"THES48959"},{"text":"Gender and Sexuality","id":"THES48940"}],"styles":[],"collectionCode":{"text":"T&P","id":"THES48602"},"images":["2011ER5469"],"imageResolution":"low","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"005","id":"THES356731"},"free":"","case":"","shelf":"","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"life masks","id":"AAT47726"}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"London","id":"x28980"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"1977","earliest":"1977-01-01","latest":"1977-12-31"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Given by Keith Collins","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Height","value":"22","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"16","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""},{"dimension":"Depth","value":"14","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[{"content":"'PROUVEUR / DEC 77'","inscriber":{"name":{"text":"","id":""},"association":{"text":"","id":""}},"date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"description":"","interpretation":"","language":"","medium":"","method":"","position":"","script":"","translation":"","transliteration":"","type":"","note":""}],"objectHistory":"","historicalContext":"","briefDescription":"Life mask of the punk actress Jordan, painted as per her make-up in Derek Jarman's 1977 film <i>Jubilee</i>.","bibliographicReferences":[],"production":"","productionType":{"text":"","id":""},"contentDescription":"","contentPlaces":[],"associatedPlaces":[],"contentPerson":[{"text":"Jordan","id":"N15594"}],"associatedPerson":[],"contentOrganisations":[],"associatedOrganisations":[],"contentPeople":[],"associatedPeople":[],"contentEvents":[],"associatedEvents":[],"contentOthers":[],"contentConcepts":[],"contentLiteraryRefs":[],"galleryLabels":[{"text":"2, 3\r\nJORDAN IN DEREK JARMAN’S JUBILEE\n\r\nPunk model and actress Jordan worked with Vivienne Westwood and was a fixture at early Sex Pistols gigs.
