Queen Victoria as you've never seen her before

High-quality film of Queen Victoria on her last trip to Ireland has been rediscovered.

The footage was taken a year before she died.

The monarch can be seen smiling and nodding. We can even see that she's wearing sunglasses.

The British Film Institute has a free library, external of Victorian film, and you can see more of MoMA's archives here, external.
