Signed photo of Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother. In 1923, Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon married Albert, the Duke of York, who unexpectedly became King George VI upon the abdication of his brother Edward in 1936. Elizabeth was the Queen consort during his lifetime and when their daughter was crowned Queen Elizabeth II, she became known as the Queen Mother. Here the ''Queen Mum,'' in all her royal splendor, poses for famed English fashion and portrait photographer Cecil Beaton, whose backstamp appears on the verso. She signs: ''Elizabeth R / 1964'' upon the mat surrounding the photo, which is housed in the official leather Royal frame bearing the Royal insignia. Framed to an overall size of approximately 11'' x 10.5''. Moderate wear to corner of frame. Overall very good.
