The Queen at the Concert in the Royal Albert Hall, 1876. Queen Victoria '...entered the Royal box punctually at four o'clock, the immense assemblage rising to receive her with all due respect. Her Majesty acknowledged by repeated bows this silent greeting, and then took her place, having to the right Princess Beatrice and the Duke of Edinburgh, to the left the Princess of Wales and Prince magnificent bouquets supplied by Mr. Wills, of the Royal Exotic Nursery, Onslow-crescent, lined the front of the box. These marked it out quite as effectively as did the crimson and gold hangings on which was emblazoned the Royal arms. The National Anthem having been sung, under the direction of Mr. Barnby, a movement of applause went round the hall, and the audience settled down to enjoy the concert'.
