exhibited in one frame. The princess
of Wales will send chair of carved

and there will also be embroiderics and
other industrial art designs from the
same distinguished source.
1t is no secret in England, though it
is probably news to most people in this
country, that Queen Victoria is IL very
accomplished amateur artist. In her
early girlhood, as the daughter of m
impoverished member of the ROYAL fam
lily, her education dcvolvcd upon her
mother, and the duchess of Kent did
herself honor in the execution of this
duty. This little princess first draw
ing master was Richard Westall, an in
significant painter, but very fair
draughtsman and instructor, and Il very
popular book illustrator in his day. He
gave her her first lessons In drawing
and died the year before she assembled
the throne. However, he had laid
good foundation for her art In his early
lessons to her. He taught her to draw
accurately and firmly, and gave her also
instructions in etching.
Later she had the valuable advice of
number of eminent British artists
like Sir Edward Landseer, Daniel
Maclisc, Sir David Willlie, Sir George
lIayter, Charles r. Leslie and others.
Her last adviser was undoubtedly Land
seer, for whom she had n great friend
ship, and whose influence may be traced
In many of her productions. After her
marriage with Prince Albert, who was
also an amateur artist, they devoted
much of their leisure to painting, draw.
ing and sketching, making little sketch.

The ROANOKE TIMES. TUESDAY, April, II. 1sgs

represents the prince of Wales ut about
four years of age. 1t is executed in
pencil, the background being rubbed in
with the finger, and shows tho prince
In full front, with long curly or waving
hair. No one would recognize III this
chlld's face any resemblance to the
bearded and well-fed heir apparent to
the throne of Great Britain as he is to-
Gay, but 1T was esteemed perfect por-
trait i'll its time. The queen made an
etching of it also.
IL should be remarked here that with
put few exceptions the artistic protluc-
TONS OF the royal household of Eng
land remain in the private collection of
the queen. Her own works are never
shown in public, though she has pre-
sented many drawings and etchinps to
friends and even given them to the
serving people at Osborn, Windsor and
Balmoral to decorate their walls withal.
Some of her productions have, how
ever filtered out into public channels
from no desire of her own. Only n few
weeks ago Il set of etchings by her were
picked up in the way of trade by Dub
lin art dealer. They had been pre-
sented by her to the countess of Charlie
mont, whose husband had been great
art collector in his day, and upon the
countess death had drifted into strange
hands, through which they ultimately
found their way into the market.
Doubtless some which she presented to
her humble defendants will also eventu-
ally become the property of private col
lectors.
Prince Albert in his etchings, draw
ings and paintings distinctly BETRAYED
the influence of the German school of
his time. In fact he had been instructed
i'll art during his boyhood ut the little
ducal court of SaXe-Coburg exactly as
any child might be taught painting and
music and the rest at the country house
OF his parents. His drawing master
was one OF the old school, and he taught
his pupil lessons on old rules. The
prince, while more slsillful as n painter
In oils than his royal consort, was never
possessed of as graceful or free move
ment of the pencil, nor did he ever
equal her facility in the use of water
colors. His works were mainly sketches
of his children and of his domestic sur
roundings and some attempts ut i'm
aginativc compositions in oil, all of
which are jealousy guarded in the pri-
vate collection of the queen.
However, he had sympathetic taste
for the arts and exercised wide In
huence in advancing them In England.
lie was musician and amateur com
poser, and so possessed double scope
lie was dcbarret, from the inferiority of
his rank to his wife, from participating
in British politics or government, and
so devoted himself to the education of
his children in the arts and to public
work. That in this direction he also
did much the scheme of the Kensing-
ton museum and art school abundantly
tcstifies.
People nowadays could scarcely figure
the prince of Wales as clever artist,

ing expeditions ont of doors and find
ing willing models in their children
Indeed, the record Of the baby life of
Princess Victoria and the prince of
Wales is pictorially preserved in the
sketches of their parents.
A most delightful group, which .gor
etched by the queen and Prince Albert
together in these early years of their
union, shows the princess royal and
the prince of Wales at about n year or
two of age respectively. The princess
is seated, while her year younger broth.
err stands beside her. The plate is deli
cately executed in soft and flowing
lines and in the style of Sir Thomas
Lawrence, who was one of tho young
queens artistic friends and suggsstors,
and who, indeed. painted one Of the
best portraits of her which exists.

where it yet remains. BY comparison
with his fathers work the princes draw
Ing, in execution and spirit, is much
superior. The picture in present qucs-
ton is called "The Knight" and repre-
sents warrior in richly decorated
armor of the fourteenth century stand
ing erect, his sword in hand. A hostile
arrow shot by some concealed foe has
just buried its head in the ground ut his
feet and he has whipped out his sword,
and in posture of defiance seeks to dis
cover the source of the attack.
couple of tents, forming part of n
camp, are seen in the background. The
action and expression of the figure are
excellent. The drawing is little more
than an outline and is made in lead
pencil. 1t shows that while the father
was the princes drawing master the
young heir apparent was much influ-
enced by Maclise, then in the zenith of
his fame rs cartoonist and decorative
painter In fact, Maclise, who was a
favoritc with both the queen and Prince
Albert, had frequently given the little
prince the benefit of his instruction and
advice.
The firstborn of the royal couple, the
princess royal, now dowager empress of
Germany, became an accomplished art
list under her fathers tuition. She is
painter of portraits and landscape, of
genuine professional merit, and rs n
girl of fifteen she sent to this same
Patriotic Fund exhibition n charming
etching of family group. For many
years, while crown princess of Germany,
she kept up studio in the new palace
at Potsdam, where she painted family
portraits and groups, decorated porce-
lain and pottery and practlced modelling
in clay and wax, Mt which she is also an
adept. Since the accession of her son
to the imperial throne of Germany much
of her time has been spent in the pur-
suit of art.
Another contribution from the royal
family to the same which
was, by the way, organized for the pur-
pose OF assisting in the prosecution of
the Crimcan war-was by Prince Alfred.

known as violinist and amateur mu-

menced the composition Of the illustra-
lions of her husbands poems, which
have since been published, and which.
while they did not openly parade her
name, were well known to be the prod
uct of her pencil. AS works of art they
were generally considered to be quite
equal, to say the least, to the verses
which they served to embellish.
Princess Louise as painter is a
devoted student of nature. Her studies
are made up on the spot and at all sea-
sons and in all wcathers. In Canada
she had little slsctching box built-a
portable studio that could be taken
apart, carried and set up anywhere else
you chose at q momcht's notice. In
this little house she could sit and pant
in the bitterest weather, the outloolss
from the windows nffording her the
subjects for her studies. But she quite
as readily accommodated herself to Il
scat Gu the grass when sketch was
worth making, and she executed Il Sc
ries of water color pictures of Quebec
from boat in the st. Lawrence river,
where she sat and worked Mt her easel
with only n stalwart boatman for n
companion and protector, amid NIL the
noise and hurry of passing craft. While
she was engaged in this employment
Sidney Hall sletchcd her portrait.
which was reproduced III an engraving
on wood and made the rounds of the
world.
Princess Louise and also the late
Princess Alice were regular contribu-
tors Mt the London Water Color society
on Pail Mall. Probably the reason
why none Of the royal family exhibited
Mt the Royal Academy was because the
queen was practically Mt the head of
that institution, and it might therefore
be hardly fair for them to enter into
competition there. Apropos of Prin-
cess Alice, her untimely death NAV
be said to have cut short the most prom
ising artistic career of the whole fami-
ly She was her mothers favoritc and
her constant companion on manv
sketching tours in the Isle of Wight,
Scotland, and the neighborhood of
Windsor.
1t has been observed that the queens
drawings and pictures have rarely come
before the public except by accident or
very occasionally when exhibited for
the benefit of charitable institutions:
but exceptions must be made in favor
