Description | Queen Victoria and Prince Albert fell in love with the camera the moment it was invented and filled their Private albums with an astonishing array of Photographs - pictures of themselves and their nine children, of their travels, of great state occasions, of the marvels of modern science, of war in the Crimea, of famous and eccentric personages.
