Glass plate negative featuring two full-length double portraits of Prince Ernst and Princess Marie of Leiningen. The couple is shown standing against a wall in the grounds of Osborne House.
The glass plate negative has been photographed showing the coated side and therefore the image appears laterally reversed. Prints from these images do not seem to exist in the Collection.
