EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the life of an Officer of the Norfolk Militia. Published in 1868 as part of "The British Army: Its Origins, Progress And Equipment" this illustration showcases the officer's impressive uniform and weaponry. Standing tall and proud, the officer is adorned in a protective leather collar known as a gorget. This steel-shaped collar not only adds to his commanding presence but also serves as a symbol of his authority. His uniform is meticulously detailed, reflecting the military fashion of that era. In his hands rests a flintlock fusil - a musket-like firearm commonly used during that time period. The spike-shaped bayonet attached to it further emphasizes its lethal nature. With these weapons at his disposal, this officer exudes power and readiness for battle. Accompanying him is an elegantly designed sword sheathed by his side, showcasing both functionality and style. A knife can also be seen tucked into his belt, serving as an additional tool for any situation he may encounter on duty. Ken Welsh's artistic talent brings this historical figure to life once more through intricate details and expert craftsmanship. This print captures not only the essence of warfare in the 18th century but also pays homage to those who served their country with unwavering dedication as officers in militias like Norfolk Militia.
