EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming color plate, taken from Frances H. Low's esteemed publication "Queen Victoria's Dolls," showcases a wooden doll representing the children of the courtier Lady Isabella Poulteney. The doll is dressed in an elegant outfit fit for royalty, with a satin dress and a silk bonnet adorned with ribbons and flowers. Accompanying the doll is an ivory toy dog, a beloved companion for the young princess as she played and imagined the lives of her mother's noble friends. Lady Isabella Poulteney, a prominent courtier during Queen Victoria's reign, was the Duchess of Shrewsbury and Marquess of Guido. Her social status and connection to the royal court made her an influential figure in Victorian society. This wooden doll, meticulously dressed by the young Princess Victoria herself, serves as a testament to the close relationship between the royal family and the courtiers of the time. The illustration, skillfully rendered by Alan Wright, captures the essence of Victorian elegance and the playful spirit of childhood. The intricate details of the doll's clothing and accessories, as well as the realistic depiction of the ivory toy dog, transport us back to a bygone era of opulence and refinement. This image offers a glimpse into the lives of the Victorian aristocracy, providing a unique perspective on the role of dolls in the lives of the young royals and the importance of play and imagination in the development of their young minds.
