A nice old painting showing a soldier from the Duchy of Brunswick with the long services medal bar for 10 year of active service for ncos. I hope you like as much as I do!

Now that IS nice! Thanks for showing. From the 1840s?

I suppose there is no name coming with it?

Cheers

No, sorry no name available. And yes, this is a pretty early painting, I guess somewhat between 1835 and 1855.

Ah a shame that there is no name, but this is sadly all too often the case... I love the detail, especially the badge on his right sleeve indicating that he is the best fencer in his unit (if i remember correctly?). And also note the ring on his right index finger contrary to todays fashion ?

Cheers
