The King of Italy in Vienna: exhibition of horses, 1873. 'The visit of King Victor Emmanuel to Vienna and Berlin has been an occasion to congratulate the Italian nation upon this token of a cordial friendship with the rulers of those two powerful monarchies whose subjects include nearly the whole of the great German race...It was on Friday, the 19th September, that Victor Emmanuel, accompanied by the Emperor Francis Joseph, was conducted through the International Exhibition, where he doubtless found much to admire in the works of art and manufacture; but he would be likely to have taken the greatest interest in the opening of the horse show which is annexed to that multifarious exhibition; and the moment when the stallions from the Imperial stables at Mezöhegyes were led in, by the cavalry soldiers acting as grooms upon this occasion, is well chosen for a sketch of the proceedings'. From "Illustrated London News", 1873.
