The children in Upper Junior have been studying pictures of Queen Victoria including a family portrait by Winterhalter, 'The Royal Family', 1846.On Friday, they discussed the symbolism of some of the more luxurious items in the painting, then made a sketch of some of the items.
The class used a range of pencils and shading to show texture and light in their drawings and produced some excellent pieces of work.
The children will continue to work on their sketches over the next few weeks adding colour and texture with paints and pastels. They will also make their own golden frames to display them in for a mini exhibition.
