Glass plate negative of an interior view of the small library in Frogmore House. The image focuses on Princess Victoria, Duchess of Kent's (1786-1861) armchair. A range of framed paintings hang on the walls of the room.
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 2101391.
