I have had a James Russell and Sons photograhy portrait for 30 years. I am desperate to find out who this beautiful woman is, a bride, i believe. It is from the Baker St studios and i believe is from 1900 untill 1905. Coukd it be Royalty? Can you please advise me? Or put me onto someone that can help? Kindest Regards

I have a book called "Art Collections of the King and Queen" published by J Russel and Sons but can find no reference to it anywhere on the web. Can you tell me anything about it?
