Wow, the morbid looking gent bottom left is F. G. Vyner. Per thepeerage, Frederick Grantham Vyner... He died on 21 April 1870 at age 23 at Greece, murdered by brigands.

A bit about it here: The captives were not treated poorly. Another Old Etonian, Frederick Grantham Vyner, reportedly ran races and tossed boulders with his captors.

Prince Boris was Czar Ferdinand of Bulgaria's son. See NYT article at query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9402E0DC1F38E533A... He became King Boris III of Bulgaria after Ferdinand abdicated in 1918.
