Pictured: Ambassador Dung arrives at the Royal Palace in horse drawn carriage called a gala coupé, a tradition dating back to the late 19th century. |
At official ceremonies in Sweden the horses are dressed up in State-harnesses when put to the Royal carriages. |
The Gala Coupé is used for all ambassadors when they arrive at the Royal Palace to hand over their credentials to the King. |
Further, the Crown Equerry, Equerry, Coachmen, Outriders and Footmen are dressed in elegant liveries and uniforms that contribute to the beauty and elegance of the Royal equipages. |
