Glass plate negative of a full length portrait of the Prince of Wales. The Prince is standing, facing a quarter to the left. He looks down and holds his hand together in front of him. There is an altar rail and drapery in the background.
The glass plate negative has been photographed showing the coated side and therefore the image appears laterally reversed. A print from this negative exists in the Collection, RCIN 2106427.
