A watercolour showing lawns in the foreground and the drive on the left, with figures walking. The Queen used Claremont, near Esher in Surrey, as a country retreat, but made much less use of it after Osborne House was acquired in 1845. Signed and dated 'C R Stanley/1842'.
Provenance
From Queen Victoria's Souvenir Album, volume I, folio 36. In 1843 the artist was paid £19 and 14 gns for two views of Claremont and two views near Claremont respectively.
