The term "Garter Stall" refers to the seating or accommodation in St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle that is assigned to members of the Order of the Garter.

The Queen, as Sovereign of the Order, would have a principal stall in the chapel, signifying her role as the head of the Order.

George Baxter's work captures the grandeur and pageantry of the British monarchy, with Queen Victoria often being a subject of his prints.

"Queen Victoria in a Garter Stall" exemplifies Baxter's skill in color printing and his ability to convey the opulence of his subject matter.
