Description:
Very rare engraving recording Prince Alfred’s visit to Adelaide in 1867.
The first visit to Australia by a member of the Royal Family was by Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, son of Queen Victoria, in 1867, during his ’round-the-world voyage. Stops were made at Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. The Duke was shot by Henry James O’Farrell in an assassination attempt while picnicking on the beach in the Sydney suburb of Clontarf, on 12 March 1868. The Duke recovered fully and continued on to New Zealand seven months later.
