BlackcowboyBS Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 (edited) 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! Edited September 25, 2020 by BlackcowboyBS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArHo Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Now that IS nice! Thanks for showing. From the 1840s? I suppose there is no name coming with it? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackcowboyBS Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 No, sorry no name available. And yes, this is a pretty early painting, I guess somewhat between 1835 and 1855. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArHo Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
