拍品专文

I was honoured that Jonathan asked to paint me for his exhibition in the National Portrait Gallery and am grateful that Christie's has agreed to auction the portrait to help girls go to school around the world. The funds raised will support the work of the Malala Fund, including helping young Syrian refugees in Jordan and girls freed from child labor now attending school in Pakistan. I hope that whoever buys the painting knows that their generosity will directly help children in some of the most challenging environments in the world
