The portrait of Lily Allen from the cover of her recent hit album West End Girl has gone on display at the National Portrait Gallery in London.

The painting, by Spanish artist Nieves Gonzalez and owned by Allen, was unveiled on Thursday and will be on show for the next year.

It shows the singer sitting on a stool wearing a polka dot puffer jacket and boots revealing a tattoo on her left leg.

Allen, who also begins her three-night run of gigs at the London Palladium theatre on Friday, said: “I’m so pleased to make this special painting available for everyone to see.”
