The Prince of Wales landing at Weymouth, 1872. 'We present a view of the landing of the Prince of Wales (future King Edward VII) and Prince Arthur, from the Royal yacht Victoria and Albert, at the pier of Weymouth, in order to partake of the luncheon provided for them at the Gloucester Hotel, by Mr. C. J. Hambro, M.P., in company with the Mayor and Mayoress of that loyal town, and some of the Dorsetshire nobility and gentry. Their Royal Highnesses, after this repast, again went on board the Victoria and Albert, which left Portland next day, returning to Cowes. The naval squadron left Portland immediately after the Royal yacht'. From "Illustrated London News", 1872.
