Glass plate negatives

Albert and Victoria’s collection of glass plate negatives show photographers’ working methods

UNKNOWN PERSON

The Prince Consort's Dressing Room, Windsor Castle

c.1870-73

RCIN 2084392

Glass plate negative featuring two almost identical views of the Prince Consort's Dressing Room at Windsor Castle. The image focuses on the prince's dressing table, complete with a pedestal mirror, brush set, boxes, caskets and other toilet service items. The table is positioned in front of a large window overlooking the gardens at the North Terrace.

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 2103780.
