Glass plate negatives
Albert and Victoria’s collection of glass plate negatives show photographers’ working methods
The Sitting Room, Frogmore House
1861RCIN 2084129
Glass plate negative of an interior view of Prince Victoria, Duchess of Kent's (1786-1861) Sitting room in Frogmore House. The image depicts a mirror, fireplace and the duchess' chair.
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. Prints from this negative do not seem to exist in the Collection, however a variant from the same sitting is represented by RCIN 2101398.
