EDITORS COMMENTS
This color plate, titled "Dolls of Courtiers Dressed by Princess Victoria," showcases three exquisitely attired wooden dolls representing the Duchess of Clarendon, Lady Maria Arnold, and Lady Derwentwater. The young Princess Victoria, known for her love of dolls and fashion, personally dressed these dolls in the late 1830s. The dolls are depicted in elegant Victorian outfits, reflecting the opulence and sophistication of the royal court. The Duchess of Clarendon's doll wears a stunning satin gown adorned with intricate floral embroidery and a matching hat with a delicate veil. Her outfit is reminiscent of the formal attire worn by the Duchess of Sutherland, who was a close friend of Princess Victoria. Lady Maria Arnold's doll is dressed in a silk gown with a high collar and long sleeves, accessorized with a tea tray and a hat adorned with a ribbon and feathers. This outfit reflects the traditional Victorian tea party culture, which was a popular pastime among the aristocracy. Lady Derwentwater's doll is dressed in a beautiful velvet gown with lace trim and a matching hat. Her outfit is reminiscent of the formal evening wear of the time, reflecting the grandeur and elegance of the Victorian era. This charming illustration, created by Alan Wright and published in Frances H. Low's "Queen Victoria's Dolls" in 1894, provides a glimpse into the world of Princess Victoria and the fashionable courtiers of her time. The meticulous attention to detail in the dolls' outfits and accessories underscores the importance of fashion and play in the life of the young princess.
