The work of acclaimed photographer W. Watson, this 1886 photograph shows Queen Victoria with some of her children including Prince Arthur, the Duke of Connaught. WhileVictoria shied away from public life after the death of her husband, Prince Albert, she did enjoy spending time with her large family. One of those happy intimate moments is recorded here.
