Annigoni had painted the young Queen for the Worshipful Company of Fishmongers, depicting her as a romantic figure wrapped in the dark blue cloak of the Order of the Garter. The influence of Cecil Beaton’s photograph of The Queen wearing the dark cloak, taken the previous year, can also be felt in Annigoni’s simple yet monumental composition. This photogravure is after this portrait.
