Apart from the furniture, is Queen Anne of Great Britain the forgotten queen?

Please discuss.

No, that would be the Empress Matilda (although she's not totally forgotten either I suppose). Queen Anne has a fairly decent place in the historical imagination I would guess, mainly because she presided over the War of Spanish Succession and a period when Britain was growing in power, at a time of great writers like Swift and Pope and seriously impressive fashion and grand architecture.
