Description
The Queen is wearing a pale ping evening gown of needlework place over tulle, with the Blue Ribbon and Star of the Garter, and with it a Russian fringe design diamond necklace (a wedding gift from the city of London), diamond drop carryings and two diamond bangles. The diamond drop brooch at the top of the blue Ribbon is a family heirloom and has been worn by the queen Mary. On her head is a diamond diadem, the headband of which is composed of the row of diamonds between two rooms of pearls. The diadem, which is of great age, was reset by queen Victoria. The Duke of Edinburgh is in the uniform of admiral of the Fleet. The photograph was taken in the Green Drawing Room at Buckingham palace.
