Taken in August 1862 when Lloyd was visiting Bleek's family in Bonn. She is wearing the same dress as in the February 1862 Oxford Road portrait, #79 above. This is a later copy of the original taken at the studio of A. Hax at the same time as #82 below. Lloyd describes her visit to Bonn to Bleek in the letter she began to write to him on her arrival in Antwerp on June 16, 1862. She wrote what became a 47p. letter over the six weeks that she spent in Germany, returning to England at the end of July.
