EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures the essence of Corporal Thomas Reynolds of the 16th The Queen's Lancers, a British cavalry regiment, in the year 1905. The Corporal's uniform is adorned with various medals and insignia, reflecting his distinguished military career. The two bars on his India Medal signify his participation in the Second Anglo-Afghan War in 1878-1880 and the Third Anglo-Afghan War in 1919. The Distinguished Conduct Medal, awarded for acts of gallantry in the presence of the enemy, is a testament to his bravery and valor. The three Good Conduct Stripes on his left arm denote his unwavering dedication and commitment to the regiment. The badges for Swordsmanship and Lance Proficiency on his right sleeve reflect his exceptional skills in these areas, essential for a successful cavalryman. The whip in his left hand and the crop in his right are symbols of his expertise in horsemanship, a crucial aspect of his role as a Lancer. The Corporal's uniform, with its intricate details and vibrant colors, transports us back to the early 20th century, providing a glimpse into the rich history of the British Army during the colonial era. The painting, skillfully executed by renowned artist Malcolm Greensmith, captures the essence of this brave soldier, his pride, and his unwavering dedication to his regiment and country.
