EDITORS COMMENTS
This color plate depicts a wooden doll, meticulously dressed as the young Princess Victoria, with her hands casually tucked into her pockets. The doll, named Victorine, wears an authentic Victorian outfit, complete with a bonnet adorned with ribbons and flowers, a long muslin frock, a fichu, and a satin or silk pinafore. The intricate details of the doll's attire mirror the fashion trends of the late 19th century, reflecting the elegance and sophistication of the time. The illustration, created by Alan Wright, is taken from Frances H. Low's renowned book "Queen Victoria's Dolls," published in 1894 by George Newness in London. The book was a popular collection of illustrations and descriptions of the various dolls that represented different stages of the young Princess Victoria's life. The doll, with her lifelike features and expressive eyes, appears to be deep in thought as she stands with a poised and regal posture. Her long, flowing curls are artfully arranged, and her bonnet sits atop her head at a jaunty angle. The delicate folds of her muslin frock and the intricate stitching on her pinafore add to the overall charm of the image. The color plate, with its rich hues and intricate details, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when dolls were not just toys but cherished companions and symbols of status and wealth. The Victorian era's love for intricately dressed dolls is beautifully captured in this illustration, making it a must-have for collectors and history enthusiasts alike.
