The Guards and Highlanders received by Omar Pasha and Marshal St Arnaud commanded by the Duke of Cambridge at Aladyn, 6 July 1854
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolour print that captures a significant moment in history. Painted by Lieutenant Francis Augustus Grant, this artwork showcases the grandeur and power of military leaders during the Crimean War. In this scene, we see a procession led by Marshal St Arnaud on his white horse, followed closely by Omar Pasha on his chestnut steed. The Duke of Cambridge stands tall with his hand confidently resting on his side. The fourth figure is Colonel Mc Donald, ADC to the Duke of Cambridge. The title inscribed in pencil verso provides additional details about the painting. It mentions that St Arnaud's escort of Spahis can be seen on the right side of the picture. Lieutenant Grant meticulously recorded names and positions to ensure accuracy. Tragically, Lieutenant Grant himself would not live long after creating this masterpiece. He succumbed to disease just months later in October 1854 while stationed at Camp Balaclava Heights. This remarkable print from Fine Art Finder allows us to glimpse into a specific moment during an important conflict in history. It serves as a reminder of the bravery and sacrifice displayed by soldiers like those depicted here – The Guards and Highlanders who fought under esteemed commanders like Omar Pasha and Marshal St Arnaud.
