Visit of the Prince and Princess of Wales to Sweden: the royal party viewing Stockholm..., 1864. Creator: Mason Jackson
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

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a moment in history when the Prince and Princess of Wales visited Sweden in 1864. The royal party is seen viewing Stockholm from the pavilion in the Mosebacke Garden, with the King of Sweden pointing out various historical landmarks to his esteemed guests.
The town below is bathed in brilliant sunshine, with houses sloping down towards the water-side where a busy harbour bustles with activity. The clear morning sky overhead reflects on the brightly blue waters, which are filled not only with local vessels but also three English ships that brought the royal visitors to this picturesque city.
As depicted by Mason Jackson's skilled hand, we can almost feel the pride and joy exuding from the King as he gestures towards different directions, explaining each view to his guests. It is evident that he is delighted to showcase his noble capital under such favorable circumstances.
This image truly encapsulates a moment of cultural exchange and diplomatic relations between two nations, as well as highlighting the beauty and grandeur of Stockholm during this historic visit. It serves as a reminder of how art can immortalize significant events for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
