    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.
