A pencil drawing showing a study of a pair of eyes. Both eyes and brows are shown, with the eyes looking to the left.

Princess Victoria, later Queen Victoria, received her first drawing lesson from the artist Richard Westall in 1827, when she was eight years old. She started by copying Westall’s drawings of horses, hands and eyes and later copied some of his finished studies, all produced for this purpose and housed in two albums. For other items in this album see Westall Sketches Volume 1.
