Victoria revealed explores the life of Britain's longest reigning monarch, told through her own words.
The simple and elegant ivory silk wedding dress she wore for her marriage to Prince Albert in 1840 will be displayed for the first time in a decade.
Personal items such as the watercolour box Queen Victoria used to paint her favourite landscapes, Prince Albert’s impressive mahogany dressing case and a teething ring from the royal nursery will illustrate the day-to-day lives of the royal couple.
Gifts that Victoria and Albert exchanged with one another explore their famous romance. Exhibits include a manuscript of music that Albert composed for Victoria during their engagement in 1839, a stunning gold, pearl and ruby suite of jewellery which Prince Albert gave to Victoria on Christmas Eve 1842, and sketches they made of one another in the first year of their marriage.
The exhibition is part of Historic Royal Palaces’ £12 million major capital project to transform the visitor experience of Kensington Palace in time for Her Majesty The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and the London Olympics. The re-opening of the palace on 26 March 2012 will also include an exciting new presentation of the magnificent State Apartments, an elegant installation of dresses worn by Diana, Princess of Wales, and improved visitor facilities including new public gardens, café, shop, and Clore Learning Centre.
