Presentations to his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales at Government House, Halifax, 1860. Creator: Unknown
Presentations to his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales at Government House, Halifax, [Canada], 1860. The future King Edward VII visits North America....the Royal standard, run up by a signal-man from the Nile, announced that Government House was for the time, through its occupation by the Prince, converted into a palace. The sentries were then doubled and a permanent guard encamped on the lawn. Both Houses of the Legislature met his Royal Highness in one of the larger rooms to present him with the address of the Executive, in the name of the people. The presentation appropriately followed that of the municipal authorities. The one conveyed to him the congratulation of the city - this was to give him the more extensive welcome of the colony. The address was read by the President of the Executive Council. The reply was read by the Prince with unaffected, unembarrassed, and emphatic warmth'. From "Illustrated London News", 1860

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment in Canadian history as His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, is warmly welcomed at Government House in Halifax, Canada, in 1860. The future King Edward VII's visit to North America was an exciting event, and upon his arrival in Halifax, the Royal standard was raised, signaling the conversion of Government House into a palace for the duration of his stay. The sentries were doubled, and a permanent guard was encamped on the lawn, adding to the grandeur of the occasion. Both the Legislative Assembly and the Legislative Council of Nova Scotia gathered to present the Prince with their addresses, expressing the people's congratulations and welcoming him to their colony. The municipal authorities presented their address earlier, allowing for a more extensive welcome from the people. The presentation ceremony took place in one of the larger rooms, with the President of the Executive Council reading the address aloud. The Prince listened attentively, responding with unaffected, unembarrassed, and emphatic warmth. This heartfelt exchange between the Prince and the representatives of the people of Nova Scotia marked a significant moment in the relationship between the British monarchy and its North American colonies. This photograph, taken from the pages of the Illustrated London News, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when royal visits were a cause for great celebration and unity among the people.
