Légende

The Funeral of His Late Royal Highness the Prince Consort: firing minute guns in the Long Walk, Windsor Park, 1861. 'At sunrise, when the union-jack was displayed half-staff from the summit of the Round Tower, five-minute guns were fired from the end of the Long Walk by a battery of the Royal Artillery, and this was continued during the morning until the Royal remains left the castle, when the firing was increased to minute time'. The death of Albert from typhoid fever was a crushing blow to Queen Victoria, who wore mourning dress for the remaining 40 years of her life. From "Illustrated London News", 1861.
