The Queen in the Riviera: Her Majesty [Queen Victoria] reviewing the troops of the Garrison of Nice, 1898. 'Drawn by A. Forestier from a Photograph by Giletta, Nice. Before leaving Cimiez, the Queen gracefully returned the compliment paid to her Majesty this year, as heretofore, by the local military authorities in the providing of a guard of honour on the occasion of the arrival and departure of their royal guest. Accompanied by Princess Henry of Battenberg and her children, and Countess Erbach, her Majesty drove to the Promenade des Anglais, where the entire military garrison at Nice was drawn up for the Queen's inspection. The troops had already been reviewed by the Military Governor, General Gebhart, and on the arrival of the Queen they marched past the royal carriage, the officers of each regiment saluting the Queen. Her Majesty congratulated General Gebhart on the appearance of his troops, who annually ensure the comfort and safety of her sojourn at Cimiez.' From "Illustrated London News", 1898.
