Arrival of the funeral procession at St. George's Chapel, Windsor, December 1844. Mourners follow the hearse containing the body of Princess Sophia of Gloucester, great-granddaughter of King George II. 'A temporary porch was erected in the Castle yard, at the south door, where the procession entered the chapel, and this as well as every other portion of the fittings was hung with black cloth...A company of the second battalion of the Scotch Fusilier Guards, under Colonel Moncrieffe, were drawn up within the Castle yard, in double lines, extending from Henry the Eighth's gateway, to the entrance of the chapel, every third man bearing a lighted flambeau'. From "Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I.
