 The photo is from December 1912, when the photo was taken, Thessaloniki was already Greek soil. Two months later King George was assassinated. I have the photo in higher resolution.

Queen Olga was the only member of the Greek Royal Family to be given a pension by the Republican government during the Royal Family's exiles.

That is not true, Queen Olga did not receive any pension in exile. Moreover, the pensions are much later in time. Queen Olga lived with her son the Prince Christopher, and depended on her son's economy to survive. Queen Olga never received any amount from the state, not even when she was Queen. Her husband , King George, was the public position with status, and the only one who received compensation from the State for being Head of State, she depended on her husband economically, Queen Sophia and the rest of the Greek Queens did not receive compensation.
