“I do not think her pretty - she has not a fine figure but a passable one. She has a very flat, narrow and upright forehead which may to be sure look so from the way in which she is coiffée, but still a fine forehead is a great thing. she has an incipient twitching in her eyes, like Heinrich - and her teeth are nearly all spoilt…she will never have anything graceful in her deportment…She has a very deep voice and rather a gruff abrupt way of speaking, frowning when she speaks, partly to conceal her shyness and partly to conceal her eyes which are perpetually twitching while she is talking. Her nose is very pretty and has a bent shape and finely cut nostrils. Her eyes are small and insignificant and she has not much expression in her face. Whether she is clever or not, I have not the slightest idea…One the whole I should say she was nice-looking but nothing particular.” (Crown Princess Victoria of Prussia)

[at Queen Victoria’s Jubilee, she] made her appearance accompanied by her husband who was blind; she seated him on a bench back of that which we occupied; then she proceeded to adjust his necktie, she pulled down his coat and smoothed it out, and arranged other parts of his uniform to suit her own taste. Finally when his appearance seemed to her satisfactory she left him. (This was an Hawaiian commentator but I have lost the exact source)
