A sizeable crowd, in the cold Winter, and a sumptuous chariot carrying Prince Umberto of Savoia around the square named after him. In the background, on the side from which the royalty enters the scene, we can see the building of the old Central Station, built in 1864 and doomed to be replaced by teh new one just four years later, due to the increasing importance of Milan as a city and the station eing too small for such a grandeur purpose.
