About this work

Description

Postcard (probably 1910s) showing the 'Queen' in a full length polka dot dress sipping tea, standing between a padded chaise longue and table with a tea tray on it. A plant is on an elaborate stand behind her and there are curtains to either side. The card would probably have been sold as a souvenir at places where she was exhibited as part of a freak or variety show.
