and Empress of India Victoria Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland

and Empress of India Victoria Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Queen Victoria’s sketchbook captured royal faces in the 19th-century print tradition. She drew Luigi Lablache, the famed opera singer, from life and turned it into a print—simple, direct lines that let the sitter’s presence show through. These private studies sit in the quiet shadow of court life, where drawing was a pastime as much as a skill. Want to see another royal sketch? Tap the Print from the same album.
