About MeIn October 1863 George Washington Wilson took this photograph of Queen Victoria seated on her pony Fyvie. Accompanying her was John Brown at the pony's head and John Grant on the right. This image was probably Wilson's most famous portrait of the Queen. He latered cropped it to exclude Grant and issued it to the public in portrait format.
