This is an original etching created by Queen Victoria in 1860. The artwork features a scene of knights fighting and two other men. It is signed by Queen Victoria with the initials "VR" in the plate, indicating its authenticity.
The small landscape-oriented print is produced using the etching technique on paper, showcasing the Queen's artistic talent from the 19th century. I Found the Following on the Internet. Both the Queen and Prince Albert were interested in art, as collectors and as artists themselves, although Victoria was the more talented of the pair. They were taught etching initially by George Hayter and later by Edwin Landseer, and drawing and sketching was a favorite pastime for them at home at Windsor and Claremont. Victoria produced 62 etchings while Albert made 25 and they occasionally worked together on the same plate and only a few examples were printed of each etching.
This was a private pastime and prints or bound sets were only occasionally bestowed as gifts as is the case with this lot offered in the Royal & Noble sale, a beautiful leather bound album, stamped with the crowned initials of Victoria and Albert, which was presented by the Queen to her official biographer, Sir Theodore Martin. The prints plate marks approximately measures 5" x 6 1/2" with the paper measuring 9 1/4" x 11 1/4". In My Opinion the print is in Good Condition due to the paper ripped were the plate mark is on the left side of the image, but please see photo to form your own opinion.
