This is a quick sketch by Samuel Begg from 1899. It shows Queen Victoria at a party in Carisbrooke Castle. The drawing was made for a magazine. Begg worked as an illustrator for The Illustrated London News for years. He used ink and simple lines to capture scenes like this.

The painting is a 1899 illustration by Samuel Begg, created for publication in an illustrated newspaper or magazine, likely *The Illustrated London News*. It depicts Queen Victoria seated in a carriage at a fete held at Carisbrooke Castle, with a procession of women dressed as "Gipsies" passing before her. Begg, who worked as an illustrator for the publication from 1895 to 1919, signed the work in the lower right corner. The sketch was later donated to a museum collection in 1914 by Sir William Ingram.
