A floral tribute to Diana, Princess of Wales, displayed as part of a town's well dressing celebrations, has been described as "horrific" and "awful".
The memorial displayed in Chesterfield Market Place marks the 20th anniversary of the death of the princess.
However, the portrait has been mocked on social media, with some saying it looked more like Worzel Gummidge.
Chesterfield Borough Council said it hoped the design would bring more people to the town.
The authority published the pictures of the memorial on its Facebook page earlier, attracting mixed reviews.

Someone petaled a bad hair day. Apparentlly stemmed from a desire for tourism.

Funny how, having absolutely no idea who that is, I know just seeing the name that the comparison is not intended to be flattering.

Looks like something Red Skelton might have come up with; "Freddie the Freeloader" without the clown makeup.

I don't understand the coonskin cap; was she a Davy Crockett fan or something?
