Description

Scarce signed photo of Her Majesty

Monarch of Queen of Great Britain and Ireland from 1837 until her death in 1901. Her more than sixty-three years on the throne remains unmatched in the history of Great Britain and places her among the longest-reigning monarchs of any nation in modern times. The unprecedented growth and prosperity of the British Empire under her rule—as well as a strangely prescient public fascination with the queen and her family—made her one of the most celebrated public figures of her day, and her name would become synonymous with an entire age. Vintage sepia matte-finish 7.25 x 11 three-quarter length portrait photo, signed in fountain pen, “Victoria RI 1887.” In very good condition, with lightly trimmed edges, mounting remnants to reverse, some scattered light surface marks, and uneven discoloration lightly affecting appearance. Despite the flaws, this rare photo still maintains its regal appearance. RRAuction COA.
