She was such a beautiful young woman. Those are wonderful portraits and I love her gown. In deep mourning and with a young family, and still she looked fabulous and regal.

I agree, Elizabeth was beautiful as a young woman and still attractive as she aged. I can't imagine sitting for a photographer while still in mourning, but she did it. The photos are spectacular.
