Oil on canvas by Charles Kay Robertson, 1904.
Sir Sam Browne (1824-1901) remains one of the most prominent figures in the history of the Indian Army, who is chiefly remembered for having introduced a new design of leather belt, the Sam Browne. He began his career with the Bengal Army in 1840 and took part in numerous campaigns, including Chillianwalla and Gujerat, before being awarded the Victoria Cross during the Indian Mutiny for gallantry at Seeporah in 1858. Together with one sowar orderly, he engaged in hand-to-hand combat to secure a strategically placed 9-pounder cannon, during which his left arm was severed at the shoulder by a sword cut.
Sam Browne is commonly believed to have developed the belt which bears his name, to make it easier to carry and use a sword and pistol after his injury.
A a lieutenant-general he commanded the Peshawar Field Force during the 2nd Afghan War (1878-1880). For 19 years Browne commanded the Punjab Cavalry and the Corps of Guides. After his death, a monument was erected to him in St Pauls Cathedral, London.); © National Army Museum

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases General Sir Samuel James Browne VC, GCB, KCSI in all his glory. Painted by Charles Kay Robertson in 1904, the oil on canvas portrait captures the essence of this remarkable figure from the Indian Army's history. Sir Sam Browne (1824-1901) is best known for introducing a revolutionary leather belt design that bears his name - the Sam Browne belt. His illustrious career began in 1840 with the Bengal Army and saw him participate in various campaigns such as Chillianwalla and Gujerat. However, it was during the Indian Mutiny that he displayed exceptional bravery at Seeporah, earning him the prestigious Victoria Cross. The painting depicts a distinguished man who lost his left arm during combat while securing a strategically placed cannon alongside one sowar orderly. It is believed that Browne developed his iconic belt to facilitate carrying a sword and pistol after this life-altering injury. Promoted to lieutenant-general, Browne commanded the Peshawar Field Force during the Second Afghan War (1878-1880). He went on to lead both Punjab Cavalry and Corps of Guides for an impressive 19 years. Following his passing, St Paul's Cathedral in London erected a monument in honor of Sir Sam Browne's contributions to military history. This print serves as a testament to his courage and enduring legacy within the Indian Army.
