I don’t remember if this has been discussed before, but have the jewels depicted in Laurits Tuxen’s painting «Christian IX of Denmark with family» been identified? Queen Alexandra seems to be wearing the jewels from this photo: http://kb-images.kb.dk/DAMJP2%2FDAM%2FSamlingsbilleder%2F0000%2F444%2F471%2FDP001165/full/full/0/native.jpg the brooch from her diamond and pearl wedding gift parure (now the BRF), and a diamond and pearl crown comb (now Queen Sonja, identified by Mauriz). I recognize CP Louise’s diamond and pearl drop brooch (now Queen Margrethe), but is she wearing a bandeau? Queen Olga is wearing a bandeau, while the other Ladies are wearing smaller hair ornaments/combs. Any ideas?
