Framed Print of The Royal Review of Scottish Volunteers at Edinburgh: the Grand Stand, 1881. Creator: Unknown
The Royal Review of Scottish Volunteers at Edinburgh: the Grand Stand, 1881....great Review, by her Majesty the Queen, of forty thousand Scottish Volunteers, in the Queen's Park... It is with sincere regret that we have to acknowledge the extreme disappointment...of the popular expectations of a splendid holiday spectacle, as the entire pleasure of the vast assembly was spoilt by a continued heavy storm of rain throughout the afternoon...The rain...soon became drenching, with a cold north-easterly wind of driving violence...The Grand Stand was decorated with red cloth and garlands of evergreens in front, and on its central and terminal pediments; with a line of blue and gold along the roof, and with a number of flags streaming from a range of poles at the summit. It was filled with privileged spectators at two o'clock in the afternoon...The marching ground was reduced to such a condition that to march with even step and well-kept lines became almost an impossibility; but, in spite of this disadvantage, the Volunteers acquitted themselves very well, and elicited again and again the hearty plaudits of people in the Grand Stand, who, enjoying some protection from the rain, were able to give their undivided attention to the scene'.
