A PRINCELY SCULPTOR.

Statue of the Princess of Wales Executed by Victor of Hoheulohe. A life-size statue of the Princess of Wales has been executed by Prince Victor of Hohenlohe, and is to be placed in the vestibule of the Royal College of Music, London. The Princess, who holds a degree as Doctor of Music from the University of Dublin, is represented in her college cap and gown. Her right hand, the wrist encircled by a plain gold bracelet, holds back the heavy embroidered folds of the gown

and discloses the plainly plaited French merino dress which she wears when in academic costume, while the left hand grasps a roll of music. The only other ornament is a small harp-shaped brooch which fastens the neck of the gown. Prince Victor is a sculptor of some ability, and many of his works have been exhibited at the Royal Academy and the Grosvernor Gallery, where he takes the name of Count Gleichen.
