I think it's Irene, but it's possible this is Helen so great is the resemblance between the two sisters on this photo of Julietta in 1928 :

The Greek family was very close to each other. When Prince Philip married Princess Elizabeth of York. Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent later travelled to Germany to tell his sisters about the details. Princess Elisabeth of Greece, Countess Toerring was later invited by Queen Mary to her birthday some years after the war.

What was she doing at Alice Keppel's villa ? Were they friends or just invited for an event ?

[KarlandZita]

The Greek royal family was a regular guest at the villa in Tuscany with Alice Keppel. Especially after 1930, when Helen moved to Villa Sparta in Italy. The two homes both located near Florence, were probably similar.
