Prince Henry's Visit to Denmark
A state visit to Copenhagen yields gorgeous images of Rosenborg Castle, captured from the water.
Overview
These impressive views of Copenhagen's Rosenborg castle were captured from the water, just offshore from the Danish capital, during a state visit from Prince Henry of the Netherlands (consort to Queen Wilhelmina). There's a dramatic shot of a warship firing a welcoming salute before the prince disembarks his steam launch at the steps of Rosenborg amid a flurry of flags and waiting officials.
State visits and royal occasions - both domestic and foreign - were a staple of British newsreels like Topical Budget. Among the other stories featured in this July 1914 edition were the King's visit to a Clyde shipyard and the Princess Royal laying a foundation stone at Marylebone Town Hall.
