    The lady on the left is the Queen's eldest daughter, Princess Elizabetha, former Queen of Greece.
    In the picture are also present the Queen's two other daughters, Marie (Mignon) who would be Quuen of Youguslavia, and Illeana, future Archduchess of Austria.
    Next to Queen Marie is her sister Beatrice, Duchess of Galliera. I think she is wearing her mother's fringe tiara, wich I believe she inherited. I've read that during the spanish civil war Pss Beatrice sold this tiara to raise money to suport the monarchist side.
