THE QUEEN’S CORRECT POSE
LONDON, May 25
“The Queen is the portrait-painter’s ideal sitter, patient, untiring, and with a natural. flair for correct pose,” says Mr Dpvid J agger, whose three-quarter-length portrait of her Majesty is exhibited at the Royal Academy.
The Queen wore a gold gown and red cloak, trimmed with sable fur.. She suggested that it would be harmonious if she wore a ruby brooch and ring—details adding greatly to the dignity and charm of the picture. ,<r l was most interested in the charming manner in which the Queen posed lier h/inds, which, besides being beautiful, are displayed to the fullest advan" tage, ’ ’ said Mr Jagger.
' r “One . sitting lasted an hour, which 1 is long enough for any model, but her Majesty was not tired and refused rest! She listened to a lady-in-wait-ing reading a biography.”
