| Victoria Alexandra Alice Mary The Princess Royal Aged Fifteen Years Turrell, 1912 The Victoria & Albert Museum |
Wearing the Garter of the Order of Victoria and Albert, Mary looks quite a lot like her mother. With her creamy skin and wheat-colored curls, she carries herself with the same dignity that Queen Mary did.
Oddly enough, Turrell painted this miniature and never presented it to the King and Queen. Instead, he kept it. His widow presented the piece to the Victoria & Albert Museum in 1932.
