EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic moment of the landing of Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, in Colombo, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), during his visit in 1870. The Duke, the second eldest son of Queen Victoria, arrived in the British colony on July 16, 1870, aboard the HMS Doris. The warm reception extended to the Prince is evident in the grand decorations adorning the harbor, with a large crowd gathered on the shore to welcome him. Dressed in full military regalia, Prince Alfred confidently steps off the boat, ready to embark on his tour of the island. The visit marked a significant moment in the British colonial rule of Ceylon, strengthening the political and cultural ties between the mother country and its colony. The Prince's journey through the island was marked by grand receptions, public events, and visits to various religious and historical sites, making this visit an important chapter in the history of both Britain and Sri Lanka.
