Victoria Duchess of Kent The Royal Collection |
Queen Victoria had a rocky relationship with her overbearing mother, and was quite pleased to leave the Duchess behind at Kensington Palace when she was created Queen. Nevertheless, Queen Victoria commissioned several paintings of her mama. This is but one of several miniatures and full-size paintings of the Duchess which reside in the Royal Collection.

She's much more fetching than her rather plain daughter.
