Entry of the newly married Crown Prince and Princess of Sweden at Stockholm, 1881. 'The marriage of the Crown Prince Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden to Princess Victoria of Baden, granddaughter of the Emperor of Germany, which took place at Carlsruhe, in Baden, about three weeks ago, was noticed in this Journal. Mr. Robert Haglund, of Stockholm, furnishes a sketch of the scene in that city on the 1st October, when the Crown Prince and Crown Princess made their state entry amidst great public rejoicings. Their way across the Malar Lake on board the Royal yacht lay through forty gaily-decked steamers, laden with loyal sightseers. The streets were festively decorated with bunting, evergreens, and triumphal arches. At the Castle the newly-wedded pair were received in great ceremony by the King and Queen and State magnates. A reception and banquet followed, and at night the city was brilliantly illuminated. The wedding present of the German Emperor to Prince Gustavus Adolphus consisted of seven noble steeds'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881.
