- Lot Description
Portrait of Queen Victoria of England, after the original by Franz Winterhalter. The young queen is depicted in a white silk and lace dress with blue sash, wearing a locket and diadem and holding a rose, with mountainous landscape background. Small paper label en verso reads "No. 38". Possibly original frame with fluted cove molding and acanthus carved corner ornaments, rope twist outer molding. Sight - 25" H x 18 1/2" W. Framed - 32" H x 25 1/2" W. Note: This painting by an unknown artist is likely a mid 19th century copy of one of Franz Winterhalter's original and very popular early likenesses of Victoria. The original was painted in London in 1842, shortly after Queen Victoria's ascension to the throne, and is now in the collection of HM Queen Elizabeth II, at Windsor Castle. The very same year, Winterhalter also painted another version of the portrait, showing the Queen wearing the Blue Ribbon of the Order of the Garter. That portrait, which was presented to Louis-Philippe, King of the French, resides today at the palace in Versailles. Provenance: Collection of Jack and Anne Wilson, Nashville, Tennessee.
