Glass plate negative of a full length portrait of Queen Victoria. The queen is depicted standing, facing to the right and turing her head slightly towards the camera. She holds a fan in her left hand.
The glass plate negative has been photographed showing the coated side and therefore the image appears laterally reversed. Prints from this negative do not seem to exist in the Collection.
