The Victorian Exhibition : illustrating fifty years of Her Majesty's reign, 1837-1887, The New Gallery, 1891-2
The Victorian Exhibition, issued in London in 1891 by the New Gallery as a record of an art exhibition marking fifty years of Queen Victoria's reign, 1837-1887. The pictures here are repeated versions of the royal coat of arms, with a lion and unicorn supporters, a crowned helm, and a shield quartered with heraldic lions and lilies, printed in red and in black line. A designer could draw on the heraldic ornament, the scrollwork mantling, and the motto ribbons for official or commemorative emblems.
