Thank you to Marie Burns,
London, for allowing me to reproduce this portrait on white opaque glass.

"Here is a photograph on white opaque glass of
someone who I think looks like Queen Victoria, painted by J Horsburgh in
the year 1891, with a surround painted in oil.
It is approx 33 cm x 23 cm. It belonged
to my paternal grandmother who lived in Liverpool.
Quite simply, I am intrigued as to its history
and how it came to be in my family."
