I must have been thinking of other portraits.
--Previous Message-- : I tried to find other pictures of HM in : Thistle robes with a tiara earlier today and : could find none. : : The second photo which shows a side view as : the portrait was set up clearly includes the : tiara being worn. : : I'm not keen on HM's expression in the : portrait as, sadly, she appears a bit : grumpy. Pity they didn't take a few more to : choose from and get a nicer expression. : : --Previous Message-- : : Actually, I have rarely seen the Queen : without a tiara in her Thistle robes, and I : mean at the service. : I had even wondered if the Thistle included : a cap. : Edit: I mean I cannot recall ever seeing : the Queen with a cap with her Thistle robes. : Edit: found this link with royals wearing : the cap : : : http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-18713500 : : --Previous Message-- : It's strange that at the same time the Queen : has a hat in her right hand ! : : --Previous Message-- : It is a jewelry board, I know, I know.... : But it is precizely the use of this diadem : which ridiculed the overall image. : The beret says it all: a diadem with : dangling emeralds bars it's use.
