EDITORS COMMENTS
This bronze statuette, titled "Sergeant, Grenadier Guards, in Marching Order," is a masterpiece created by renowned British sculptor George Edward Wade (1853-1933). Wade is best known for his Peace Memorial with Bronze Figure of Christ at Quarry Bank, Staffordshire, which was unveiled on October 24, 1931. The inscription on the memorial reads, "To The Immortal Honour Of The Men Of Quarry Bank Who Fell In The Great War." This particular statuette showcases a sergeant of the Grenadier Guards in meticulously detailed marching order. The soldier is depicted carrying his rifle, kitbag slung over his shoulder, and a fixed gaze, exuding a sense of discipline and determination. The intricate textures and lifelike features of the soldier's uniform and equipment highlight Wade's exceptional skill as a sculptor. Although Wade is primarily recognized for his Peace Memorial, this statuette is a testament to his versatility as an artist. The Grenadier Guards, an elite infantry regiment of the British Army, have a rich history dating back to the late 17th century. This statuette offers a glimpse into the wartime history of the 1st Military District, specifically during World War I (WW1 or WWI). The soldier's stoic demeanor and military kit serve as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women of Quarry Bank during that era. This bronze statuette is not only an exquisite work of art but also a historical artifact that tells a story of courage, resilience, and honor. The intricate details and lifelike features make it a valuable addition to any collection, particularly for those with an interest in military history or British sculpture.
