Description : |
During the 19th century when a significant proportion of the Australian population was of British origin, patriotic devotion was often felt for the "Mother country". The title of this piece means "Victoria, by the grace of God" and was written about Queen Victoria who was monarch of British empire from 1837-1901. Queen Victoria celebrated her Diamond Jubilee in 1897 which was likely to be the catalyst for this piece. |
