This record describes the detail of the measurements of the image of a painting of Queen Victoria by Sir William Ross / The object is a case that opens to form a watch-holder. It contains four daguerreotypes, after portraits of Prince Albert by Sir William Ross; another after a painting of Duke Ernest I of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha; another after a painting of Queen Victoria by Sir William Ross; the fourth after a painting of Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, by F.X. Winterhalter. See the other entries relating to this case for images and details of the other daguerreotypes. The depiction of three generations within the same object accompanied by a short family tree is appropriate for a watch holder - an item that is associated with the passage of time. This item probably belonged to Prince Albert.
