EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Officers helmet and plume from the Madras Horse Artillery, dating back to 1856. The British School of the 19th century beautifully captured this historical artifact, which is now housed in the National Army Museum in London. Belonging to Captain Jones, who joined the Madras Artillery in 1842 before transferring to the Horse Artillery in 1856, this helmet holds great significance. Its gilt embossed center proudly displays the Honourable East India Company's Arms and scrolls adorned with battle honors such as Java and Mahidpore, symbolizing past triumphs on the battlefield. A striking representation of heraldry and military pride. The intricate design features a lion motif that exudes strength and courage – qualities emblematic of these brave officers. This powerful animal stands tall against a backdrop of confrontation, reminding us of their unwavering dedication to duty and protection. Interestingly, this particular pattern was eventually replaced by a busby in 1859. However, its legacy lives on through photographs like this one – preserving not only a piece of history but also honoring those who served with honor and valor. Bridgeman Images has skillfully reproduced this remarkable image from Fine Art Finder for all enthusiasts to admire. Let it serve as a reminder of our rich military heritage and pay tribute to those who have selflessly defended our nation throughout time.
