Floating up the Euphrates, between banks of nettled flowers, the Royal 女王 heads towards her summer ミツバチの巣箱（複）, a solemn voyage. The frame in which this picture appears was probably at one time used by a 肖像 of Victoria, 女王 of Steam, who looked well and enjoyed well being glued between the ornamental English 花 strips. Some 蜂 fancier cut her out, and replaced the Brittanic 頭 with the full 体 photograph of an exemplary representative of the 蜂 race (insect 種 are often dubbed races by their romanticizers).
