The Funeral of Count Berg at St. Petersburg - from a sketch by our special artist, 1874. 'The funeral of Field Marshal Count Berg, Lieutenant-Governor of Poland, which took place at St. Petersburg, a few days before the Royal wedding, presented an imposing spectacle in the streets of the Russian capital, as the procession conducting the hearse moved from the Lutheran church, in the Nevski Prospect, after the religious ceremony. The Emperor of Russia and the Prince of Wales attended the funeral procession, both on horseback. Our Artist's sketch represents his Majesty and the Prince awaiting the departure of the hearse from the chapel door. His Royal Highness wore his military overcoat and the busby cap of the Rifle Brigade'. From "Illustrated London News", 1874.
