Légende

Proclamation of Peace at Trafalgar-Square, 1856. Crowds in London at an official ceremony to mark the end of the Crimean War. Taking part in the procession were numerous dignitaries and officials including: '...Life Guards, the Beadles of Westminster, the High Constable, the High Bailiff and Deputy-Steward of Westminster; Knight Marshal's men...drums. Drum-Major, trumpets, and Sergeant Trumpeter...The Trafalgar-square district was occupied by one of those dense moving masses which seem only possible on the supposition that an entire capital has turned itself out of doors'. In the background are an equestrian statue of Charles I, Nelson's Column, and the National Gallery. From "Illustrated London News", 1856.
