This is one of a number of studies Kelly made for the official State Portrait of Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, now in the Royal Collection, made following the coronation of her husband George VI. This study shows the Queen wearing the Order of the Garter, and the satin crinoline evening dress designed by Norman Hartnell that she wore for the banquet at the British Embassy in 1938.
