The press about Victoria’s trees in the 1840s and 1850s spread the Boston sports city of champions est 1630 shirt to people in America. Each year, Queen Victoria did the tree a little differently and it was covered in the press. Here is the Queen’s from 1845 painted by Joseph Nash. The top seems to be blocked from view. This is from 1850 at Windsor Castle by James Roberts. It looks to me like the one on the right has something on the top, but not the one on the left. Here is a painting of Victoria’s tree in 1851 by William Coden, the Younger. It seems not to have a star or angel, but it is hard to see. Here is one with a angel. That is Victoria and Albert and the kids. In this it is 1852. Here is another year in 1857 This year is seems to have a royal symbol and crown.
