Queen Victoria liked to celebrate her grandchildren’s birthday during the family visit to Osborne and this picture was probably taken at an early celebration of Maurice of BATTENBERG’s birthday which was the 3rd October. He was born in 1891 and died at Sonneneck during the retreat from Mons in 1914. The Duke probably signed it the following year at the request of one of the people who were present.
