Description
English: Augusta, Princess of Prussia
  • commissioned by Queen Victoria

  • The lotnotes at the source say " the marriage in 1857 between two of their children - Prince Frederick Wilhelm of Prussia, future Emperor Frederick III Wilhelm of Germany (1831-88), and Victoria, Princess Royal (1840-1901)." Therefore this is most probably w:Augusta of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach, and not w:Princess Augusta of Prussia
