EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, dating back to the 19th century, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of recruitment during that era. Titled "Recruiting: The Cavalry Standard" this print captures a pivotal moment in history when soldiers were being enlisted for cavalry service. The scene unfolds with a bustling crowd gathered around what appears to be a measurement station. Soldiers stand tall and proud, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, while potential recruits anxiously await their turn to be measured against the cavalry standard. This meticulous process ensured that only those meeting the height requirements would be accepted into this esteemed branch of military service. Published on December 5th, 1857 in the Illustrated Times, this illustration sheds light on an important aspect of recruitment during Victorian times. It showcases not only the significance placed upon physical attributes but also highlights how clothing played an integral role in distinguishing one's rank and affiliation within the army. As we delve deeper into this historical artwork from Fine Art Finder's collection by Bridgeman Images, it serves as a reminder of how much has changed over time. Yet it also prompts us to reflect on timeless themes such as duty, honor, and sacrifice that have remained constant throughout centuries of military service.
