We take a look back at the Monarch's extraordinary life.

Queen Elizabeth II died on Thursday, after 70 years as British monarch.

She ascended to the throne in 1952, when she was just 25 years old, and became Britain's longest-reigning Monarch. During her many decades on the throne, she worked with 15 prime ministers, traveled the world on royal tours and attended countless engagements.

From intimate celebrations with her family to key public events, we look back at some of the most iconic and memorable moments from the Monarch's extraordinary life.
