Glass plate negative of a full length group portrait of royal family members taken after the wedding of Albert Edward, Prince of Wales and Princess Alexandra. The object seems to be a cropped version of RCIN 2082662.
The glass plate negative has been photographed showing the coated side and therefore the image appears laterally reversed.
