Caption
Her Majesty landing at Grimsby, 1854. Queen Victoria visits Lincolnshire. 'The Queen was received, on landing, by the Mayor and Corporation of Grimsby...Her Majesty arrived soon after half-past twelve o'clock...amid the firing of artillery and the heartiest acclamations. The passenger-station at the dock side was fitted up for this purpose, and was elegantly draped; the lower end being occupied by privileged spectators who had obtained tickets of admission; while facing the entrance was a dais, surmounted by a canopy of purple velvet. Upon the dais were chairs of state for the Queen and Prince Albert; but her Majesty remained standing throughout the brief ceremony which followed...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854.
