This was part of the Royal Tour of the British Empire in 1901 by Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and York. Before the tour actually started they became The Prince and Princess of Wales, due the death of Queen Victoria. In 1910 they became King George V and Queen Mary following the death of King Edward VII.
