• Support Detailed portrait of the whole family. The portraitist also managed - wittingly or not - to capture the blindness of the recently acceding king (crowned 1851), although his fondness for being shown in profile may have been inherited from his father (1), and repeated in other portraits of George V (2 3) rather than being to do with an unsightly right eye (which was not much of a problem, apparently (4)).
