EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph print, created by R Simkin in 1890, showcases the distinguished 17th Lancers of the British Army during the late 19th century. The artist's attention to detail and vibrant use of color bring this historical moment to life. In this image, a cavalry officer from the renowned regiment is depicted on horseback, exuding an air of authority and bravery. His striking uniform, complete with a plumed helmet and lancer dress, reflects the grandeur and tradition associated with Victorian-era military attire. With his sword raised high and lance at hand, he epitomizes the spirit of warfare prevalent during that time. The magnificent horse beneath him stands tall and powerful, embodying strength and loyalty - essential qualities for any mounted soldier. The bond between man and beast is evident as they both confidently navigate through what appears to be a battlefield. This artwork serves as a testament to not only the skillful artistry of R Simkin but also pays homage to the valiant soldiers who served in one of Britain's most esteemed cavalry regiments. It offers us a glimpse into their world - one filled with honor, duty, and sacrifice. As we admire this remarkable piece from our past, let it remind us of those who came before us; individuals who dedicated their lives to protecting our nation while riding fearlessly into battle atop noble steeds like these.
