    I can't make out the signature of the artist but it's a great painting with lots of character. Hopefully someone will know who it's by.

    Message sent. It looks like some of the pamphlets they sell are illustrated by the same artist.

    On the subject of Newsome's.....

    • The charge of the right wing of HM 16th Lancers is said to have been led by a Sergeant Newsome, who shouted out “Hullo boys, here goes for death or a commission.” He leapt his horse over the kneeling front rank of Sikh infantry and went to grab a Sikh colour. He was killed by 19 bayonet wounds. It is reported that the squadron managed to break into the square because Newsome’s horse was so fiery and ill-trained that it went straight through the infantry. Peacetime cavalry training had horses breaking around an infantry square which made it difficult to persuade them to do otherwise in a real battle.

    And coincidentally two of my cousins served in 16th/5th Lancers. :wideyed:

    Thanks Andrew, after I'd posted Menzel (again) I thought why didn't I do a search first or look at the list. :oops:

    That last one of the sailors is a good lesson in painting white and effects of light. (y)
