EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an officer of the 36th (Herefordshire) Regiment, believed to be Ensign William Tunstall. Created around 1810, this miniature portrait on ivory exudes elegance and sophistication. The unknown artist masterfully captures the essence of this esteemed officer in exquisite detail. Housed within a glazed gold frame with a suspension ring, this bust-length portrait miniature is truly a work of art. On the reverse side, four sections of dark brown hair are intricately woven in a diamond pattern, adding an intriguing touch to this remarkable piece. Ensign William Tunstall served valiantly in the 36th Regiment of Foot from May 1809 onwards. His dedication and bravery led to his promotion as lieutenant in 1812. However, his military journey was not without sacrifice; he sustained injuries during the Battle of Nivelle in 1813. After years of service, Ensign Tunstall was placed on half pay in 1819. This stunning portrait immortalizes him at the height of his military career—a testament to his unwavering commitment and courage. Now housed at the National Army Museum in London, this photograph offers us a glimpse into history—an opportunity to appreciate both the artistic talent behind its creation and the valorous individuals who dedicated their lives to serving their country.
