| Marie, Queen of Hanover German School, 1861 Portrait: Watercolor on Ivory Frame: Gold, Enamel, Diamonds The Royal Collection |
The painting by an unknown German artist was presented to Marie by Queen Victoria as a souvenir. The piece was then given to Princess Mary Adelaide who was also the Duchess of Teck. As often happened, the little portrait ended up in the hands of—you guessed it—Queen Mary (of Teck) who managed to get hold of everything.
