No more dresses for me!


1900
Queen Victoria, Prince Henry, King George VI, Princess Mary, and Prince Edward.

Again, I am tickled by the expression on the Queen's face.  She seems to be trying to figure out how on earth this baby got on her lap. It's nice to see that the King is old enough for big boy pants too.

Great-Grandmama


1898
Queen Victoria, Princess Mary, King George VI and Prince Edward (yes, I know he was King Edward VIII but really, his reign was so short and inconsequential.)

Most pictures of Queen Victoria taken after Prince Albert's death depict her as being very solemn.  I love how this picture has her looking at the little princess with concern or curiosity.  It makes me wonder what Princess Mary was up to.
