Neither regiment, however, rode grey horses, black horses only being used as they still are today.We would like to thank Dr Andrew Cormack for his assistance cataloguing this lot.
English School, early 19th centuryFull-length portrait of an officer of the 3rd (Prince of Wales's) Regiment of Dragoon Guards, circa 1806oil on metal 42.8 x 32cm (16 7/8 x 12 5/8in).Footnotes:ProvenancePrivate collection, UK.This portrait was written up in the Journal of the Society for Army Historical Research (hereafter JSAHR) in Vol. 69, Autumn 1991, pp. 135-137 in which the sitter was incorrectly identified as a Quartermaster. The gold lace on the jacket breast, cuffs and collar clearly show that the subject is an officer, as does the gold tassel on his sword knot visible just above the boots.We would like to thank Dr Andrew Cormack for his assistance cataloguing this lot.
English School, 19th centuryThree quarter-length portrait of an officer of the 2nd Dragoon Guards (The Queen's Bays), circa 1850oil on canvas 76 x 63.5cm (29 15/16 x 25in).Footnotes:ProvenancePrivate collection, UK.This officer carrying the 1847 Pattern helmet with black falling plume wears the rather more plain uniform coat introduced in 1831 modified by shortening the tails in 1847. The facing colour of his cuffs is hidden by his gauntlets, but is indicated by dark blue piping on his collar, coat and on his shoulder belt. This appears also on the rear of the collar of the Trooper who is looking after the one of the Bay horses - chestnut with black tail and mane - used by the entire regiment.We would like to thank Dr Andrew Cormack for his assistance cataloguing this lot.
English School, early 19th centuryThree quarter-length portrait of an officer of the 2nd Regiment of Hussars of the King's German Legion, circa 1812oil on canvas 33.4 x 26.6cm (13 1/8 x 10 1/2in).Footnotes:ProvenancePrivate collection, UK.The sitter in this portrait has been mistaken in some books for an officer of the 18th Hussars of the British Army, but the gold cords on his jacket and the gold and crimson barrel sash identify him as being of the King's German Legion. The latter was a force, originally of Hanoverian soldiers who fled Napoleon's Europe in 1803 to fight for King George III alongside the British Army. The regiment served in Spain during the Peninsular War and at Waterloo.We would like to thank Dr Andrew Cormack for his assistance cataloguing this lot.
English School, late 18th centuryA three-quarter-length oval-form portrait of an officer of the Light Company of the 47th (Lancashire) Regiment of Foot, circa 1790.oil on canvas 37.2 x 29.5cm (14 5/8 x 11 5/8in).Footnotes:Provenancewith The Parker Gallery, London.Private collection, UK.Shown at a period when the British Army had adopted somewhat dandified uniforms to improve its morale after its defeat in the American War of Independence, this officer wears the 1768 Pattern uniform as modified in the following 25 years. His service in the Light Company of that regiment is shown by his wearing epaulettes on both shoulders and the appearance of a bugle-horn embroidered on a red patch at the end of his epaulette straps. The wearing of wings to indicate attachment to the Light Company only became common after 1797. His sword belt plate is of a previously unrecorded pattern that does not appear in H.G. Parkyn, Shoulder-Belt Plates and Buttons (Aldershot: Gale & Polden Ltd, 1956).An inscription on the frame suggests that this is a portrait of James Cuming. Cuming was born in Scotland 1768. He served in the West Indies 1793-1802, at the Cape of Good Hope 1806, South America 1807 and commanded the 47th Regiment of Foot in India 1808-1813. He died on the Isle of Man 16 August 1839.We would like to thank Dr Andrew Cormack for his assistance cataloguing this lot.
English School, 19th centuryFull-length portrait of an officer of the 2nd Dragoon Guards (Queen's Bays), late 1840s - early 1850s.oil on canvas 76.2 x 58.4cm (30 x 23in).Footnotes:Provenancewith The Parker Gallery, London.Private collection, UKWith his Undress cap on the table beside him, this officer wears the typical Dragoon Guard uniform of the period before the Crimean War of 1855. At that date the elaborate sabretache, worn here from exceptionally long slings, disappeared as an encumbrance unsuitable for campaigning. Indeed the war against Russia had a profound effect in modernising British Army uniforms - tail-coats disappeared and were replaced with tunics.We would like to thank Dr Andrew Cormack for his assistance cataloguing this lot.
