EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable oil on canvas painting titled "Lord George Lennox, Colonel of the 25th Regiment of Foot, c. 1771" by Giuseppe Chiesa. Housed in the National Army Museum in London, this piece is part of a set of six paintings attributed to Chiesa. Although the title suggests otherwise, this particular artwork does not depict Lord George Lennox himself. Instead, it portrays an intriguing scene featuring the regiment setting off on a march. Notably, the officer standing to the right of the drummer carries a spontoon and is unlikely to be the Colonel. The grenadiers positioned on the left side of the painting wear newly issued fur caps without any plates as yet. This detail offers insight into their uniforms during that period. The 25th Regiment of Foot was stationed in Menorca from June 6th, 1769 until 1775 as part of Britain's efforts to maintain control over this strategically important Mediterranean base acquired from Spain after the Seven Years War (1756-1763). Originally owned by Lord George Lennox himself – who served as colonel for this regiment from 1762 until his death in 1805 – these paintings provide a glimpse into their service in Menorca. This fascinating image is brought to you by Bridgeman Images through Fine Art Finder and remains out-of-copyright for non-commercial use.
