The Queen and the Wounded : Her Majesty Visiting a Ward in Netley Hospital. 1900.

For Sale is a Full removed from "The Graphic, May 26th, 1900," showing a Drawing by W. Hatherell, R.I., from a sketch by F. C. Dickinson for "The Queen and the Wounded :  Her Majesty Visiting a Ward in Netley Hospital."

Last week the Queen paid her fourth visit to Netlet Hospitalduring the past twelve months. Her Majesty, who was accompanied by Princess Henry of Battenberg, Princess Victoria of Schleswig-Holstein, and Princess Victoria Eugenie and Prince Leopold of Battenberg, brought baskets of flowers with her from Windsor for distribution among the patients.  Her Majesty saw over six hundred who have taken part in the war in South Africa, among whom were many seriously wounded.  As Her Majesty was wheeled from ward to ward she conversed with each of the bed-ridden men, and to each she gave a spray of flowers.  So closely did Her Majesty observe every little detail that she handled one of the service pillows, and said that they were not soft enough for men who had to endure such pain- with the result that the patients may expect more comfortable pillows at no distant date.  Altogether the Queen spent an hour and a half in the wards.

Condition is Very Good.
