Victoria and Albert - Art and Love
Opens: 19/03/2010 Closes: 31/10/2010
Queen's Gallery, London

This new exhibition counters that perception and highlights the affection and joy she shared with Prince Albert – particularly through the arts. The exhibition also features a ‘secret’ portrait. Saucy. Kind of.
