Queen Victoria with her daughters, Vicky (Crown Princess of Prussia, standing behind), Alice (kneeling) and her son Prince Alfred, mourning Prince Albert. Taken at Windsor in March 1862, shortly after the Queen's return from Osborne, where she had taken refuge in the first weeks of her widowhood. The group is dominated by a large bust of Albert, gazing out of the picture towards the light. Under one print of this photograph Victoria wrote, 'Day turned into night'.
