EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1858, showcases the 10th Hussars Cavalry Regiment during the Victorian era. The 10th Hussars, also known as the "Prince of Wales's Own" regiment, were a distinguished part of the British Army, with a rich history that can be traced back to 1715. The image presents an intriguing scene of a lone rider on horseback, dressed in the full regimental uniform of the 10th Hussars. The soldier wears a dark blue jacket, with brass buttons and red facings, adorned with the regimental badge of a tiger's head on the collar and cuffs. His trousers are of the same color, and he is equipped with a saber, a carbine, and a pair of pistols. His horse, also outfitted with military gear, is a testament to the close bond between soldier and mount. The setting of the photograph is a rustic, open landscape, with trees and bushes in the background, providing a stark contrast to the formal uniformity of the soldier and his horse. The natural surroundings add an element of authenticity to the image, as if capturing a moment of rest during a military campaign. The 1850s was a period of significant change for the British Army, with advancements in military technology and tactics. The 10th Hussars, like many other regiments, underwent transformations during this time. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the daily life and appearance of a Victorian soldier in the 10th Hussars Cavalry Regiment.
