14 May 1870 — Madrid | |
Saturday. 14th [May 1870]. After breakfast Mrs Burr & I went off in a cab to the picture gallery where we had a very agreeable morning seeing the pictures at our leisure. Afterwards the carriage fetched us & we went to Laurent’s where I had myself photod & after we came home to luncheon. Mr Riaño came here & we went at ½ past 3 to the Fomento with him to see the pictures there of wh there are a quantity & some very fine early Spanish ones. We went into the Ministers’ room where some of the best are & got up on his chairs to see them. We then came to our door & dropped Henry who got on his horse & we took a turn in the Mon Cloa & Henry met us riding. We dined alone. | |
