EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative painting by Malcolm Greensmith, we find the Color Sergeant of the 42nd Highlanders (The Black Watch) proudly donning the full battle order of his regiment in 1856. The 42nd Highlanders, also known as The Royal Highland Regiment, were a renowned Scottish infantry regiment of the British Army, with a rich history that can be traced back to the late 17th century. The sergeant's striking uniform showcases the short-lived double-breasted doublet, which marked the transition from the traditional Highland costume to a more uniformed military appearance. This new style of uniform, which came into being at the end of the Crimean War, was designed to bring the Highland regiments more in line with other British infantry units. The sergeant's outfit includes a kilt made of the iconic tartan of the Black Watch, a sporran, a military rifle slung over his shoulder, and a bearskin bonnet adorned with a feather plume. His face is adorned with a thick beard, adding to his imposing presence. The 42nd Highlanders were famous for their distinctive appearance and fierce fighting spirit. This painting captures the essence of that tradition, offering a glimpse into the history and heritage of this esteemed Scottish regiment. The sergeant's proud demeanor and meticulously detailed uniform serve as a testament to the pride and dedication that defined the 42nd Highlanders. This painting is a valuable historical record of the 42nd Highlanders and their unique uniform, providing a window into the past and the rich tapestry of Scottish military history. The intricacies of the uniform, from the tartan pattern to the various insignia, offer a wealth of details for those interested in the history of the Scottish regiments and the British Army.
