The Schleswig-Holstein Difficulty: triumphal entry of Prince Frederick... Holstein, 1864. Creator: Unknown
The Schleswig-Holstein Difficulty: triumphal entry of Prince Frederick of Augustenburg into Kiel, Holstein, 1864. The news of...[the Prince's] arrival spread like wildfire through the town, and all the inhabitants, headed by the municipal authorities, flocked to the terminus to welcome him. The progress of the Duke through the town was a triumphal procession. He and those who accompanied him had to pass through a perfect shower of flowers on their way through the streets...The Duke rode bareheaded, and repeatedly thanked the people on all sides for the reception accorded him. At six in the evening the illumination began, and in half an hour Kiel was resplendent with light. At half-past eight the Duke rode through the town in a carriage, having with him Count Louis Reventlow (who has been his resident Minister at Hamburg for some time) and two of the local senators, while the crowds around the carriage increased each instant, and each instant the roar of their cheers, mingled with the national songs, became louder and louder. At times the progress of the carriage became stopped by the throng; but, after a tour which lasted for an hour, the Duke returned to the place whence he set out'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864
