Glass plate negative of a full length portrait of Princess Beatrice standing with her back facing towards the camera. The princess poses in front of a balustrade. She wears a floral headdress and a light coloured dress with a full skirt.
The glass plate negative has been photographed showing the coated side and therefore the image appears laterally reversed. At least one print from this negative exists in the Collection, RCIN 2900351.
