Queen Victoria special memorial print

 
Name
Her Majesty the Queen-Empress
[Queen Victoria]
Date
Jan. 31, 1901
Caption
no caption (the memorial print)
Artist
Guth (Jean Baptiste Guth)
Biographical Text
text unavailable
Category
Royalty and Heads of State
Condition notes
Very Good/Excellent: please refer to above scan.
NOTE: The Queen died in January 1901, tactful in her death by waiting until the nineteenth century was absolutely and indisputably over. To mourn her, Vanity Fair reprinted Guth's portrait from 1897 in simple black and white (using the offset process, so there is a dot pattern on this print).
