JOSEPH JOSIAH DODD (BRITISH, 1810-1894)
Princess Victoria greeted by crowds at St Leonards-on-Sea, Sussex
Queen Victoria visited St Leonards-on-Sea in 1838, the year of her coronation, nearly a year after her accession to the throne. Dodd had by this date already been employed as 'Painter in Water Colours to their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Kent & the Princess Victoria', and seems to have travelled at times with Queen Victoria, capturing her visits and engagements.

The sheet is not laid down but is tabbed into a non-acidic mount. There is some slight surface dirt and some old restoration in the sky. There is some water staining to the right hand edge, but the colours are strong and fresh and the sheet reads well.
