All are seen wearing their full ceremonial uniforms. Photograph by Rondz and Schrader of St. Petersburg. Signed by each member of the delegation in bold fountain pen inks to the lower photographer's mount, and also signed by the two Russian officials, Lieutenant Colonel Pavel Alexandrovich Stakhovich and D. Orbeliani. Framed and glazed to an overall size of 15 x 18. An unusual signed photograph. Some very light age wear and minor staining to the photographer's mount, not affecting the signatures, otherwise VG In early 1901 King Edward VI entrusted the Duke of Abercorn to lead a special diplomatic mission to announce the death of Queen Victoria and the accession of the King. The mission visited the cities of Ostend, Cologne, Hamburg, Kiel, Korsoer, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Abo, Rilhimaki, St. Petersburg, Berlin and Dresden.
