Default Comparing this bloom to Cattleya Earl ‘Imperialis’

Hello All! Anyone growing or familiar with C. Earl ‘Imperialis’ that can help me with this?

Photos below of my blooming orchid that I was told is C. Earl ‘Imperialis’. Do the blooms and habit of the pendulous flower stem look like C. Earl ‘Imperialis’? Any characteristics to rule out being C. Earl ‘Imperialis’?

I do have a known C. Earl ‘Imperialis’ growing adjacent but it is not in bloom; buds blasted this year. Would have made a nice side by side comparison, otherwise. The foliage appears identical between the two. However, I heard from others that it’s not saying much with all the decades breeding of the corsage type white Catts.

Thanks in advance for any help and observations you can provide.

Joseph
