Notes |
The two volume publication was entitled, "Portraits of the Female Aristocracy of the Court of Queen Victoria", published in London 1849. The portrait by Franz Xaver Winterhalter, painted two months before the Queen’s death, is in the Royal Collection, RCIN 405389, Millar, 'The Victorian Pictures', cat. 833. Writing to Leopold, King of the Belgians, Queen Victoria remarked that Winterhalter had ‘made a beautiful & striking picture of the poor, dear Queen; the lithograph of it, you have I think, & you must be struck by the gt likeness‘ (Windsor Royal Archives y.94/55) Cataloguing supported by the Pilgrim Trust |

[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. ![]() |
