State Ball at Stockholm, 1860: A Regal Gathering of Nobility and Uniformed Grandeur" This evocative image captures the grandeur and opulence of the State Ball held in Stockholm Palace following the coronation of King Charles XV of Sweden as King of Norway. Our special artist skillfully sketched this scene for the Illustrated London News in 1860, providing a rare glimpse into the splendor of the event. The room is filled to capacity with the elite of Swedish and Norwegian society, all eager to pay their respects to their new monarch. The brilliant assemblage of uniforms, combined with the galaxy of beauty, creates a breathtaking tableau that few could rival. In the foreground, a tall figure, hat in hand and dressed in ordinary attire, represents the deputy from Dalecarlia. Each province of the empire was represented in this manner. Behind him, the Norwegian and a few other deputies can be seen. To the left of the picture, a man in an unusual dress with a high plume of feathers adorning his hat stands in attendance, ready to offer refreshments to the Royal party. The Queen and Princesses are seated on a slightly raised dais, surrounded by their Ladies in Waiting. The King, dressed in hussar uniform, and Prince Oscar, in naval uniform, preside over the festivities. The "Grand Salle des Fetes" resonates with the sound of lively music and the spirit of dancing, which continued well into the early hours of the morning. This enchanting sketch offers a glimpse into the rich history and traditions of Sweden and Norway, providing a captivating window into the past.
