RCIN 2084140

Glass plate negative of an interior view of Princess Victoria, Duchess of Kent's (1786-1861) bedroom in Frogmore House. The view includes a sofa above which hang a range of paintings.

The photograph was possibly taken shortly after the death of the duchess who lived the latter years of her live at Frogmore House.

The glass plate negative has been photographed showing the coated side and therefore the image appears laterally reversed. A print from this negative exists in the Collection, RCIN 2101405.
