Marriage Festivities for the Duke of Edinburgh: firing a salute in the Long Walk, Windsor Park, 1874. Celebrations to mark the royal wedding of Grand Duchess Maria Alexandrovna of Russia, and Alfred, Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, son of Queen Victoria. 'At Windsor the bells of St. George's Chapel and the parish church rang merry peals during the day, the town was decked with flags, and the Royal standard floated from the flagstaff on the Townhall. Royal salutes were fired in the Long Walk by the Royal Bombardier, and at Fort Belvedere and at Virginia Water. At St. George's Chapel, in the afternoon, a special anthem, composed by Sir George Elvey, was sung in commemoration of the Royal wedding'. From "Illustrated London News", 1874.
