Visit of the Prince and Princess of Wales to Sweden: the royal party viewing Stockholm from the pavilion in the Mosebacke Garden - from a sketch by our special artist, 1864. The King of Sweden... pointed out to the Prince and Princess from the pavilion, or raised orchestra, in the Mosebacke Gardens, many interesting localities which are associated with historical traditions...The town lay beneath them, bathed in brilliant sunshine, and it could not have been seen under more favourable circumstances. Directly in front of the wooden platform on which they stood the houses slope down to the water-side. The busy harbour was as brightly blue as the clear morning sky overhead. In addition to the crowd of large and small vessels ranged alongside the quays, it now bore on its broad bosom the three English vessels which had brought the Prince and his suite...I could see the King pointing with his stick first in one direction, then in another, and explaining the view to the Prince and Princess of Wales. I do not wonder he was proud of it, and glad of the fine morning which enabled him to show his guests the beauties of his noble capital. From "Illustrated London News", 1864.
