42.Sir Garnet Wolseley's Headquarters Camp, Nicosia. 1878. 21x10 cms. Sir Garnet Wolseley shifted his headquarters from H.M.S ' Himalaya'  to H.M.S. ' Salamis'  and delayed in proceeding to the capital Nicosia. In fact there were rumours that he was seriously considering declaring Larnaca as the administrative capital of the Island..... this abominable action was fortunately averted when negotiations with an Italian, owner of a mansion in Larnaca he was intending to rent, collapsed....... so he moved on to " Metochi tou Kykkou".
