Glass plate negative featuring two full-length portrait of Princess Victoria, Duchess of Kent standing, facing slightly towards the right. She poses with her left hand resting on her waist and she holds a parasol in her right hand. Photograph taken on the terrace at Osborne.
The glass plate negative has been photographed showing the coated side and therefore the image appears laterally reversed. Prints from both images exist in the Collection, RCINs 2513455 and 2513457.
