dear everyone, is there any pictorial evidence of Queen Elizabeth [wife of George VI, the later Queen Mother] wearing the George IV diadem? WW2 occupied much of her husband's reign, and the openings of parliament were done in Westminster Hall, with very little pagentry. We also know that Queen Mary often wore a tiara to the state opening, or the base of her crown, but I have never seen an image of QEQM with the state diadem.
