Queen Victoria's children often made cards and drawings for their parents as gifts on important dates, such as this drawing executed by Princess Helena for her mother's birthday on 24 May 1853.

This drawing is housed in one of two volumes, compiled by Queen Victoria and containing works presented to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert by their nine children. For other items in the volume see Princes & Princesses album 2.
