EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Highland Light Infantry" from the supplement to the Art and Navy Gazette, dated 7th December 1895. The vibrant color lithograph, created by Richard Simkin, depicts members of the renowned 71st and 74th Foot regiments. In this image, we witness a group of proud highlanders donning their traditional tartan kilts and trews. Their striking uniforms are complemented by impressive swords hanging from their belts. Each soldier wears a distinctive hat adorned with feathers or plumes that add an air of grandeur to their appearance. The soldiers' fierce expressions are matched only by their meticulously groomed mustaches, which further emphasize their masculinity and strength. Standing tall in formation, they exude discipline and unity as they proudly represent the Highland Brigade. Noteworthy details include the soldiers' cloaks draped over one shoulder, adding both practicality and elegance to their attire. This photograph encapsulates not just a military unit but also a rich cultural heritage that has been passed down through generations. As we gaze upon this historic image captured over a century ago, it serves as a reminder of the bravery and dedication exhibited by these highlanders who served in The Highland Light Infantry regiment. It is an enduring testament to their unwavering commitment to duty and honor within the British Army's ranks during that era.
