The Royal Visit to India: Scindia proposing the health of the Prince of Wales at Gwalior, from a sketch by one of our special artists, 1876. The future King Edward VII attends a banquet. '...the Maharajah Scindia entered and sat beside the Prince, ten of his nobles being ranged beside him. He proposed the health of the Queen, and subsequently that of the Prince, which was drunk in champagne. The Prince, in very warm terms, returned thanks and gave the health of Scindia, whom he should ever remember as a friend. The toast was drunk...amid loud cheers. The great Mahratta chief appeared immensely gratified. Our Illustration of the scene at table shows the Maharajah...the Prince of Wales seated at his left hand and Sir Bartle Frere on his right. Behind Scindia...stands Sir Richard Daly, who interprets to the Prince of Wales the speech of his generous Indian host'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876.
