Description

Beautiful Baron portraits of the Queen and Her Prince from 1962, formerly displayed in the "The Officer’s Mess, Royal Canadian Air Force"

Marvelous pair of vintage oversized 17 x 22.25 portrait photographs of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, originally taken by Baron Studios (Sterling Henry Nahum) and subsequently published in England by Raphael Tuck & Sons, both individually signed in the lower border in fountain pen, “Elizabeth R., 1962” and “Philip, 1962.” The photographs depict the queen wearing a lovely gown with the Riband and Star of the Order of the Garter, a brooch on the shoulder, and a Lesser George at the waist, and the prince in a handsome three-quarter-length pose in his military uniform. Both are elaborately and individually framed to an overall size of 21 x 26.5, the reverse of each frame backing bearing an affixed label from the “Office of The High Commissioner for Canada,” issuing the portraits to “The Officer’s Mess, Royal Canadian Air Force, St. Hubert, Quebec.” In overall fine condition.
