The 42nd Highlanders march with precision and unity, showcasing their exceptional training and discipline. Returning from Ashantee, we witness a powerful scene etched into history - the Black Watch (42nd Highlanders) marching triumphantly towards Governors Green in Portsmouth. Their resolute steps symbolize victory over adversity. In another engraving capturing the Autumn Campaign on Dartmoor, we see them fearlessly storming Yellow Mead Farm during an assault on Sheepstor.

Their valor extends beyond British shores; battles such as Alexandria bear witness to their unwavering resolve against formidable foes. These engravings immortalize moments where they stood firm against all odds. One cannot forget Quatre Bras - a square formation charged by French cuirassiers on June 16th, 1815. Their courage shines through despite facing overwhelming opposition. Their unwavering determination becomes a testament to their legacy.
