The funeral of King Alexander of Yugoslavia in Belgrade: the new King, eleven-year-old Peter, stands in the front beside his mother Queen Marie (Marie of Romania's second daughter), draped from head to foot in black. Behind are the Regent, Prince Paul of Yugoslavia and his wife Olga, behind them is Peter's uncle King Carol II of Romania (in peaked cap, looking upwards), and behind him Prince Nicholas of Greece, Prince George, Duke of Kent, and Prince Kirill of Bulgaria. King Alexander was shot in the streets of Marseilles on 9 October 1934, during a State visit to France.
