No binding. Condition: Good. MOST INTERESTING AND RARE QUEEN VICTORIA PHOTO CIRCA 1880'S Very interesting and rare circa 1880's albumen photo of Queen Victoria with Princess Beatrice and Queen Victoria's her 4 dogs plus a circa 1876 Queen Victoria hand-written note photographed: Victoria, Beatrice - "Waldmann" "Fern", "Sharp" and "Noble" . Princess Beatrice, was Queen Victoria youngest child and wife of Prince Henry of Battenberg (1857-1944). Original albumen photo of a presumed circa 1877 Charles Burton Barber painting, with some foxing and a bit faded otherwise good condition.This photo is unusual in part because it appears to be a very similar image of Charles Burton Barber* oil on canvas painting "Queen Victoria with Princess Beatrice and a Group of Dogs (before Apr 1877)" which shows Queen Victoria seated near the Slopes at Windsor painted for the Queen from photographs. Princess Beatrice stands beside her and they are surrounded by four dogs: Waldmann, Fern, Sharp and Noble. Barber was paid £24 for the picture on 2 April 1877. It was originally hung at Osborne House, it was transferred in 1903 to Buckingham Palace. The painting is held at the Royal Collection Trust (RCIN 406403). Our albumen photograph is virtually the same image as the Barber painting except for the angle on the head of Princess Beatrice. We speculate possibly this may have been one of the photos Barber used as a reference when painting the above mentioned oil painting. Much more to this photo story we are sure! *Charles Burton Barber (1845-94) [painter] He was a nineteenth century British artist best known for his paintings of animals. Between 1872 and 1894 Barber was frequently employed by Queen Victoria. Condition & Photo comments: Original albumen photo with some foxing and a bit faded otherwise good condition. The paper for the overall background appears to be photographic which includes the note which was originally written Queen Victoria. The base photographic paper has old tear/peeling marks on it probably because of previous mat framing being removed where the image and note had been mat framed. The 8-1/4 x 6-1/4 inch image of Queen Victoria, Beatrice and the dogs is an albumen photograph affixed to the overall base photographic paper background. As part of the photographic back ground the name of the photographer is shown. Hills & Saunders, Eton, photographic company. They are known as photographers to 'Her Majesty the Queen' and 'H.R.H. the Prince of Wales' 1860's-present. Located in Buckinghamshire until 1974, when it was transferred to Berkshire. The photo was retouched to highlight some of the details.Queen Victoria loved her dogs, and consequently, she memorialised them, as she would her other faithful servants and friends. These memorials, mostly hidden, help us to understand that more. â Sharp' (1865-1879) was another collie-dog from Aberarder. â Sharp' was buried under a cedar tree at Windsor when he died, under the (private) Castle Terrace. the news of his death is the Queen's entire (edited) journal entry for 20 November 1879. â Sharp' was sculpted in bronze on a marble plinth by the eminent sculptor Sir Joseph Edgar Boehm as a statue over his grave in around 1881. The inscription reads still: â Sharp. The Favourite and Faithful Collie of Queen Victoria from 1865 to 1879. Died Nov 1879. Aged 15 years'.â Noble' (1871-1887). A moving memorial was erected to â Noble' by Boehm in the grounds at Balmoral, showing him sculpted, ever ready to attend his royal mistress. A sculpture in marble of him may also be found in the Grand Corridor at Osborne House. â Noble' had once guarded the Queen's gloves (Christopher Hibbert, Queen Victoria: A Personal History, Queen Victoria wished for Noble's grave at Balmoral to be a brick vault, with the â dear dog to be wrapped up in the box lined with lead and charcoal, placed in it' (In this photo probably Noble III)Quoted from "Queen Victoria's memorials to her dogs" article E.J. TimmsWaldmann. A smooth-haired dachshund, the first, arrived from Germany in June 1840. The Queen, throughout her life owned several dachshunds. All of them were called Waldmann. This photo is proabably Waldmann VI.Fern (c1870-76). Brother of Sharp. Black-and-tan collie.

Paper. Condition: Good. First Edition. An Original Hand Written Letter and Signed by Princess Beatrice Youngest Daughter of Queen Victoria Lord Cross. Princess Beatrice 1857-1944, autograph letter signed, ?Beatrice?, Kensington Palace, 8 February 1907, letter of condolences on the death of his wife, 2 pages, From an Archive of correspondence mostly addressed to Richard Assheton Cross 1st Viscount Cross, late 19th & early 20th century. Princess Beatrice of the United Kingdom, 1857-1944, later Princess Henry of Battenberg, was the fifth daughter and youngest child of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Beatrice was also the last of Queen Victoria's children to die, 66 years after the first, her elder sister Alice. Richard Assheton Cross, 1st Viscount Cross, (1823-1914), was born in Red Scar, near Preston, Lancashire. A lawyer and banker, Cross was a Conservative member of the House of Commons from 1857 to 1862 and from 1868 until 1886. In 1874 Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli appointed him home secretary. The Cross Act of 1875 empowered municipalities to buy and demolish slums and to build housing for rental. In the same year Cross carried through Parliament the Factory Act, regulating the employment of women and children in textile mills; the Public Health Act, a comprehensive sanitary code; and two statutes reinterpreting Gladstone?s trade-union legislation of 1871. Cross left office with Disraeli in 1880, served again as home secretary in the 3rd Marquess of Salisbury?s brief ministry of 1885-86, was created viscount in 1886, and held the secretaryship for India from that year until 1892. From 1895 to 1900 he was lord privy seal. In 1884, Cross was elected to the Board of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway, and he remained a Director of that company, and of its successor the Great Central Railway (GCR), until his death. 'Cross was a fellow of the Royal Society, a bencher of the Inner Temple, and an ecclesiastical commissioner, and was keenly interested in the affairs of the church. His honours included, besides the viscountcy, the GCB (1880) and GCSI (1892). He was among the small band of her ministers to whom Queen Victoria gave her close personal friendship, and he was a trustee of more than one royal marriage settlement' . Cross may now be best remembered as one of the country's outstanding home secretaries but some of the material offered here, by direct descent from the family, reveals his close relationship with Queen Victoria. He is mentioned frequently in her journals from 1877 until 1900, often as a guest at the royal residences of Balmoral, Windsor and Osborne. Size is 177mm x 115mm. Condition is good. Folding crease. More images can be taken upon request. Ref17300. Signed by Author(s).
