EDITORS COMMENTS
In this stunning painting by Malcolm Greensmith, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur and tradition of the British military during the late 19th century. The subject of the painting is a Lieutenant of the Royal Horse Artillery, an esteemed and honored position in the British Army. The Lieutenant is depicted in full dress uniform, a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and pride taken in the military's rich history. The uniform itself is a sight to behold. The red tunic, adorned with gold braid and buttons, is paired with a black waistcoat and breeches. The gold epaulets on the shoulders and the shining silver belt buckle add to the overall impression of opulence. The most striking feature of the uniform, however, is the plume of white ostrich feathers atop the Lieutenant's shako, a tall, cylindrical hat that was a hallmark of the British military at the time. The Lieutenant holds a sword in his right hand, the hilt of which is intricately designed with gold and silver detailing. The sword's scabbard is adorned with a royal crest, a reminder of the Lieutenant's connection to the monarchy. The horse, also dressed in military regalia, stands proudly by the soldier's side, its mane and tail meticulously groomed. The painting captures the essence of a bygone era, a time when military tradition and ceremony held great importance. The Lieutenant's stoic expression and the horse's alert demeanor convey a sense of readiness and duty, a reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers throughout history to protect their countries. This painting is not only a beautiful work of art but also a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the history and culture of the British military during a time of great change and innovation.
