The hand-painted print is part of Spooners Upright Series of Costume of the British Army, a collection that beautifully captures the attire and regalia worn by soldiers during this era. In this striking portrait, we see a distinguished gentleman standing tall in his vibrant red jacket adorned with gold buttons. His traditional bearskin hat adds an air of authority to his presence while his sword rests confidently at his side. The officer's impeccable dress reflects the pride and discipline synonymous with British military tradition. The lithograph offers us a glimpse into the world of warfare in the early 19th century, showcasing not only the officer's uniform but also providing insight into weaponry used during that time period.
