It was published for use in an annual pocket book, Le Souvenir for 1861. I have found an uncoloured earlier version of the print by W Backsell at the British Museum after a painting by W Havell. Kronheim was obviously giving instruction to print from that plate in colour so he would have cut the colour blocks etc and then (as seems to have been the norm for this) put his name as the printer – which is of course is now totally correct.

If you would like further information or images please feel free to contact me via 'contact seller' Baxter Print: A print produced by George Baxter (1804 - 1867). He would have designed the image, engraved the steel printing plate, prepared up to 20 plus wood or metal blocks to print each individual colour and then printed them, all on hand presses, one colour at time, his print of the Coronation of Queen Victoria took FOUR years to complete. Baxter Process: From 1849 Baxter sold licences to use his process - between 1850 and 1870's the companies of Le Blond & Co, J M Kronheim, Myers & Co, W Dickes, Joseph Mansell and Bradshaw & Blacklock produced work by Baxter's patent process, these printers are known as Baxter Licencees and their work as Baxter Licencee prints. Victorian colour printing of this period, much by the Baxter Process, was far superior to the majority of colour work that came afterwards when art and quality were superseded later in the 19th century by the requirements of quantity at a cheap price.
